Grateful the seedlings grow. And I’m absolutely grateful for my cozy house. I love to live here

I’m grateful:
For my sponsor, for guiding me through steps 1-3 yesterday.
For how energized I felt afterwards.
For a great CA meeting last night.
For God giving me the courage to volunteer to do the meet and greet for the meeting last night, there were no newcomers unfortunately, but I was there and ready to offer them the hope I’ve been given should there have been.
For how much my confidence has improved in the 4 weeks I’ve been attending CA meetings, especially so in the last week since having a sponsor and starting the work.
For 34 days clean from cocaine.
For 11 days without binge-eating.
For my step-mum being supportive when I ‘came-out’ about my ‘alcoholism’ and becoming a member of ‘AA’, it’s not the whole truth but atleast now I can be open about attending meetings and how I’m spending my time and changing as a person.
For my two cats, Prince and Wolfie, for instinctively knowing what they need and being able to provide it.
For the newcomers that answer their phone when I call, and for all the fellows in CA that call me.
For the TS forum and everyone here supporting each other everyday.
That I’m no longer waking up with crippling anxiety waiting for a dealer to turn their phone on so I can pick up and start using.
That I’m not spending the days having panic attacks after every line and thinking I’m going to die each time.
That I’m not too anxious to answer and make phonecalls anymore.
That I’m no longer too anxious to drive on parkways, it’s getting easier the more I do it.
That I am no longer using alcohol and drugs to escape from my feelings.
Thank you.

Huge congrats on your 90 days! 
I like how you worded that, and I try to do the same… one tiny step at a time. I’m glad you’re here.

I’m grateful I finally made the decision to mute the daily check-in thread. It’s been bringing me low for the past couple months, and I tried limiting my time there, but that’s not good enough. It does bother me that I may lose connection with some people, but this journey is mine and I have to do all I can to stay sober.
I’m grateful I’m still here. The past three days have been a nerve-wracking struggle for me. I’m grateful for looking inward, I’m grateful for the tools of sobriety and mental well-being I’ve gained from folks here and from my readings. I’m grateful I’m learning that most struggles now involve my mental and emotional health, so I’m tackling those head on.
I’m grateful for my grace. It’s never been something that’s fully describable for me, but I know instinctively when I’m filled with it and when I’m low. Much of my meditation and reading is about how to hold onto my grace.
I’m grateful for those here who have touched my life in a positive way. I’m grateful for those who haven’t, because I learn a lot from that as well.
I’m grateful I am sober. I’m grateful I am human. I’m grateful I can feel myself shifting away from certain ways of thinking that I brought with me to this community, and that I feel comfort in doing so.
Y’all have a beautiful day.

Good morning 
I am grateful for manifestation and I strongly believe what we put out into the world we will recieve.
Again I am grateful for the switch between my brain and my heart.
I am grateful that my life is not ruled by thoughts of fear and anger.
I am grateful that the strength of my heart is so much stronger than my mind so in instances where fear and anger used to rule, love, compassion, and healing energy have taken over. It feels so much nicer when i can spend time sending people love, compassion and healing their pain rather than wasting time being angry and afraid.
I am grateful I am back in tune with my energies.
I am grateful for the opportunity to share deep thoughts with other people and not be judged. (My dad thinks I am insane)
I am grateful that the girl with 24 hrs clean came with me to a meeting last night.
I am grateful that there were 3 people coming back to that meeting.
I am grateful that today is therapy day, I am grateful for my small cozy home that is easy for me to keep clean. I am grateful that Nugget and Lyric are doing well since Annie was set free.
I am grateful for so much.
Congrats on your 90 days @Pandita happy to see you posting here.

I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful to see my little twinee doll face popping up while I do my gratitude list 
I’m grateful I get to do gratitude every morning.
I’m grateful I want to do gratitude every morning.
I’m grateful I know it works for me.
I’m grateful for cat zoomies early in the morning.
I’m grateful the grays gently take turns waking me up in the morning.
I’m grateful my wife called Alice a dick last night after trying to give her her pills. We think that means she’s feisty and getting better.
I’m grateful it does seem Alice is slowly getting better.
I’m grateful the Ol Burner is on my lap.
I’m grateful for gorgeous dog faces. Minnie. And wagging tails.
I’m grateful for my new book Codependent No More.
I’m grateful when other people mention codependency and it makes me think 
What does that mean exactly? I’ve lived it all my life. But what does it mean exactly? And I use to feel stupid. I didn’t know exactly what it meant. But I know what it means. I’m grateful to read today that I’m normal. There is no set definition of what codependent or codependency means. There’s just too many definitions depending on who you talk to. I’m grateful it’s ok if I don’t know exactly what something is.
I’m grateful I’m finally reading this book. I’ve heard of it years and years ago when Melody Beattie first wrote it 25 years ago. I’ve read so many other books about stuff like this. But for some reason. Never read this one. I can’t figure out why. But I’m grateful I’m reading it now. And I’m realizing deep down, where it hurts, that I’ve been a codependent all my life. And I still fucking am 
I’m grateful I’m a sober codependent. So I got that going for me.
I’m grateful for this gratitude thread.
I’m grateful I’ve been lurking on the check in thread and it warms my heart to see so many people helping and supporting so many people.
I’m grateful for the magic of TS.

I am grateful to be still sober.
I am grateful I just realized how much I hate competition and how it stands in my way to get into application process.
I am grateful I am on my way to accept that I have a difficult relationship to caffeine.
I am grateful I have a home. I am grateful an old friend messaged me what’s up in her life. I feel for her.
I am grateful I didn’t let all my anger and frustration out on my colleague. She is how she is and I won’t change her.
I am grateful I can soon go to bed.

Good for you knowing how to set boundries to benefit your progress. I’ve been considering doing this too. I’m feeling overwhelmed with the massive amounts of posts and trying to keep up with everyone elses journey. I want to be a part of their journey but it’s impeding my own.

I struggled over making this decision for the past few days. It wasn’t easy, but I was to the point of leaving the app for my peace of mind. Although I love this community, it sometimes feels too similar to the social media I got rid of years ago. Hopefully, I’ll get stronger in the future, and I’ll be able to deal with the check-in thread. But I can’t do it right now. Please do what’s best for you. Our sobriety is the most important reason we’re here.

I’m grateful that I have found some peace with my level of participation on TS and that certain threads not only help when I need support but bring me joy, too. I’m grateful I’m not the only one who has made hard choices to mute/block or simply to scroll on by. I’m grateful that I was able to delete a comment I would have regretted and that was the cue for me to take a step back. I’m grateful for how flexible it feels being a part of TS and that I do not feel any pressure to do anything beyond what I am able to at any given time. That wasn’t always true. I feel a responsibility for myself and my recovery and also to some folks I’ve built relationships with but I don’t feel beholden to anyone. I’m grateful for quality relationships and the chance to both be lifted up and lift others up in return.
I’m grateful I can make amends and recognize when I’ve made mistakes in my life. I’m grateful to feel like I’m living well with what I have and am managing sadness, depression, anxiety and fear better these days. I’m grateful that the more it looks like we might be making another big move in the next year or two after three years in Dubuque, Iowa that I am not filled with anxiety about that unknown. We have moved before, including two cross country moves and several moves to new communities, and we can do it again (with more experience under our belts). And the prospect of living in the Piedmont region of North Carolina is pretty interesting! I’m grateful the butterflies in my stomach feel more like excitement than dread and that I can sit with this unknown, day dream with my partner, and start doing some research. I’m grateful this opportunity is evidence that my husband is rockin’ his career and being recognized for stepping into more and more leadership roles and doing great! I’m grateful for all his hard work and that in recovery I feel like I can support him better. I’m grateful we didn’t buy a house when we moved here since we wanted to be sure we would stay here and it looks like we made a smart choice. I’m grateful another big move won’t include trying to sell a house. I’m also grateful that I’m happy where I live now and we can stay here if that’s in the cards, too. Guys, just writing this blows my mind. Things have changed so much for me that I can be at peace with this and just take things as they come. Who am I?!? 
I’m grateful for the work I’ve done to move toward wellness and resilience, I know things won’t all be pretty or easy but my mindset is so much more open nowadays.
I’m grateful for my amigos here, thanks for reading.

I’m grateful that I can dream again, even if they are nightmares. I would rather deal with the monsters in the night and be able to wake up, rather than dream a dreamless sleep and wake up to a nightmare that I feel I can’t escape.

It’s taking me years to figure this out. I’m grateful you have learned this Franzi.
I’m trying to take it even one step further. What right have I got even trying to change someone.
Don’t get me wrong. I’d like some people to change. I think. But I cannot make that happen.
Sleep well

I am grateful to be sober and hangover free.
I am grateful for the 7 hour of sleep i got.
I am grateful that I made it through last night eventhough it was rough and my anxiety levels were high… it always passes.
I am grateful for the book I am reading, quit like a women, it is showing me a slightly new twist on sobriety and giving me a new boost and empowering feeling around it which is something I haven’t really felt before.
I am grateful that the book comes with an opportunity to join an online community which i will try.
I am grateful that I am about to go for a brisk walk before work.
I am grateful to be here with everyone.

I am grateful for 164 days AF.
I am grateful for my health. I have recently returned to in person yoga classes, and I almost forgot how integral my practice is to both my physical and mental well being. I have resumed early morning running, and I am grateful I no longer have to choose between skipping a workout or doing it hungover (or still drunk) on a Sunday morning.
I am grateful for the promise of Spring, for daffodils and tulip trees and red buds.

I’m grateful to God. I’m grateful for recovery. I’m grateful for ALL my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful for experience(good and bad) and that I am sober enough to remember them and actually give a fuck to use them to help me and others. I’m grateful when the country in me comes out. I’m grateful for music, exercise , humor, laughter, prayer and meditation.
God bless you all. 
&
p.s. Don’t forget you are absolutely strong and incredible, you got this. Ya you!!

For waking up safe, warm, and above ground.
For the coffee and sugar free caramel syrup arriving yesterday. For being able to make iced coffee at home, and for it tasting just as good, if not better, than Starbucks.
For the Richmond meeting last night.
For everyone that works in health care.
For scientists, for researching, testing, and creating treatments and cures.
For the newcomers I will call today.
For my sponsor and fellows in CA, for feeling supported in my recovery.
For my two cats, I adore them with my whole heart, for their individual personalities that keep me entertained everyday.
For laughter, it’s been years since I’ve felt light enough to find humour in things.
For being able to read and write, and for my speech somewhat improving as my social anxiety is lessening.
For TS, this amazing community that helped to light my handle and lead me to what feels like real recovery to me. 
That I’m no longer trying to pass the days as quickly as possible because I can’t stand to live in the moment.
That I no longer feel terrified of running out of drugs.
That I no longer feel alone in this.
That I’m not wasting money anymore.
That I’m not having debilitating panic attacks from doing drugs all day every day.
Thank you.
