Reading old entries from my journal at detox and rehab really showed me the growth I obtained, I was angry about not successfully ending my life, hell I was angry at the detox center for saving my life. Who knew I would ever make it this far.

I’m grateful for my ever blossoming bromance (and potential marriage) with @Dejavu - There’s no way in hell that without his support that I could’ve dug down and stayed sober these last few weeks.
Welcome Luigi! We’re grateful you made it back too - and grateful to have you join us! Check out the “Checking in Daily” thread - it’s a great thread for keeping accountable and tapping into all of the support here on a daily basis.
And of course read around the whole forum. There’s no shortage of support here.
Very thankful to be out of the fog so I can work on becoming more financially stable.
I’m grateful to God please help me stay clean and sober for today.

The past 4 days have been a break I had not realized I so deperately needed.
I am grateful that the worlds aligned for me to have this chance to recover.
I am grateful to have spent it with my best friend
I am grateful we both can return with some more space in our souls
I am grateful for the past 24 days, showing me what is possible
I am grateful I can finally listen to my higher power, who has been showing me the signs and patiently waiting for me to open my eyes and see.
I recognise I will go through my highs and lows
I recognise that I will face challenges that have nothing to do with sobriety
I recognise that I have the oppurtunity everyday to become stonger, to choose my paths, knowing that I have my guides walking with me.
I am grateful to surrender to this new flow, this new freedom.
Peace and Love to ya’all♥️
Today I’m grateful that I’ve kept my cool… , that I had kept my cool at the end of the long day yesterday that could have ended with me losing my sh*t, but did not. Grateful that I turned the camera off on my zoom work call and prep-cooked my veggies. (There may have been some therapeutic, cathartic release in wielding my knife upon root vegetables!)
I’m grateful that I’ve set good limits and boundaries with work today - lots of breaks and I even just had a 10 min nap.
I’m grateful I’m learning to accept that I don’t need to do it all, that I can’t do it all - and that this doesn’t mean I’m a failure or not a good person. Grateful that I’m learning my self-worth isn’t about what I achieve, or what others think I should achieve.
I’m super grateful I’m sober, or I wouldn’t be in this headspace. I’m grateful for all the support I have here from all of you to be sober, to stay sober.
I’m grateful for the yummy roasted veggie quinoa salad I just had for lunch. I’m grateful for my tiny comfy home - the music, the calm view out my window, the snowy day outside.
M and D? I’m grateful for all the time we had to hang out, the time I thought would never come to an end. Remember when I would impromptu swing by your place after my work day, bring something to add to the dinner table, go for a walk with Mom, watch the news with Dad? Just those easy-going visits, endless hugs, I still thought we had years of them, but it’s ok. I can still coast on all the love…
I’m grateful for another day.
