Thank you for this day
I am grateful for this day. Grateful for an anxiety help insight timer talk that was available to me last night when I had an anxiety attack in the middle of the night. Grateful for good sleep afterwards. Grateful for waking up so much more rested.
I am grateful I was fit enough to do some grocery shopping and cook good food.
I am grateful I made a short walk to the festival grounds and experienced some great stuff there.
I am grateful I could spend the rest of the day in my comfortable appartement, resting, working, thinking.
I am grateful I could follow the festival talks on the live stream with some really great ideas and people there.
I am grateful I am here in Berlin, semi-attending the festival. So much inspiration and such a strange experience to be here in Berlin, only a few hundred meters away from the festival grounds, but at the same time sitting in a room and watching what is happening at the festival through a live stream. It has some surreal qualities this experience.
And I could have never had this experience if had not made this trip and if I was not sick and in bed most of the time. Life is strange.
I am grateful for coffee and tea.
I am grateful my anxiety subsided significantly.
I am grateful Iām feeling much better today then I felt yesterday.
I am grateful Iām confident Iāll manage to make the trip on Sunday back home.
I am grateful to feel connected to my higher power, to see how things are happening as they should and to trust to always be held.
I am grateful for this day.
Sleep tight sober friends
Iām grateful Iām fried and in a coma in a good way.
Iām grateful Iām so fried I canāt possibly do anything or anymore work around here.
Iām grateful I wouldnāt know where to begin.
Iām grateful to just sit here check in and do some gratitude with Benson at my feet.
Iām grateful I love it here.
Iām grateful for a good dinner out last night. Grateful for a good lunch out today.
Iām grateful for my new hood and all the gardens and flowers and trees.
Iām grateful for roses.
Iām grateful for citrus trees.
Iām grateful for the marine layer keeping it so nice and cool.
Iām grateful the cats are doing so well.
Iām grateful to watch Benson be afraid to walk on the cold wet grass at night with the froggy choir in the background. Poor guy. Grateful I get to laugh about it.
Iām grateful these guys never have to move again. Including myself.
Iām grateful the biggest part of my anxiety on this move and the last 2 months are over. Thatās the drive with the pets. And everything preceding it.
Iām grateful the rest is in the movers hands and out of my control.
Iām grateful whatās important, wifey, cats and dog are here safely.
Iām grateful.
Iām blessed.
Iām pretty dang happy.
Iām exhausted mentally and physically and emotionally.
Iām sober. And thatās the most grateful thing.
Iām grateful for my new view.
Hiii!!!
Iām grateful for waking up another morning sober and with a clear head! Iām grateful that I had zero anxiety today which is a nice change from the last 2 days.
I had a moment today where I broke down in tears from stress of finding child care for when I return to work and how I was going to afford it since my husband did not seem like he was going to help out, but luckily after a clarifying phone conversation we were able to come up with some type of financial agreement to help until he is able to return home and I am so grateful for that!
Iām grateful that my HR manager is so understanding and has been using sick time to cover down for my āvacationā and the days these next 2 weeks that I canāt work due to not being able to afford childcare. She is saving my vacation time since it will rollover once my promotion takes effect, but my sick time wonāt and she is making sure I get the opportunity to use every hour! Iām grateful that I never called off from work to use those hours and had over 150 hours to use!!
Iām grateful to have taken this time while not at work to focus on my physical and mental health! Iām grateful to have been able to work out the last 4 days in row and making myself stick to it! Iām grateful that my oldest is old enough to watch my youngest for a small amount of time so that I can go workout really quick.
Lastly iām grateful to have good health insurance! I was able to get the referral from my primary to enter into the intensive outpatient treatment that I looked into! I canāt wait to start and be able to meet people in person that are struggling the same way I have been! I have struggled to make friends in person here and am hoping this might open me up to some new friends who understand the struggle that we all have and are going through!
Almost 12 days! Thank you all for the support! I really enjoy jumping on this app multiple times a day to read all of your grateful posts!
Im greatful i got to read your gratitude (my tonight) @Saraboobear23 good for you reaching out for support. Thats a great sign!
Iām grateful for you @Dazercat @JazzyS @Cjp @Saraboobear23 @acromouse @Laner . You really brighten my day. Iām grateful for Turner Classic Movies. Iām grateful for peppered salami and sharp cheddar. Iām grateful that Iām still here, still sober. Thank you all š«¶š»

Iām grateful for those that are posting the lights in the night sky from the north, on the nature thread.
Iām grateful when sober friends and people here post things like that and any other news worthy stuff it just seems more real to me.
Iām grateful to be up too early after a great nights sleep. Iām grateful we figured out the back yard lights on the timer with the help of my SIL. Iām grateful for family.
Iām grateful I live near family for the first time in forever. Iām grateful they asked to come over and I said sure
Iām grateful the wife was taking a nap and I just said āsure cāmon over!ā Iām grateful I didnāt check with the wife first. Iām grateful it may not sound like much, but first instinct I have about anything, even the above mentioned, I think I have to ask her if itās ok.
Iām grateful I was so excited, like my father, when I drove by my daughterās street on the way to the grocery store. I even told my wife to take a pic She didnāt
Iām grateful that brings back memories of my dad joyously yelling at āErics pond!ā āWhereās Eric?!ā When Iād drive him by as the old age and dementia started to show up. Or was it
maybe he was just happy and grateful. Iām grateful I can admit I found it annoying sometimes but I get it now Dad. Love you
Iām grateful my SIL asked me what I was puttering around with yesterday on their short visit. And he said he loves to putter around. Iām grateful heās actually the one who figured out setting the timer on my lights. Iām grateful he knows a good contractor. Iām grateful heās already pushing me to get in touch with him.
Iām grateful I can be sober, and willing to just let this family stuff happen. Iām grateful so fucking grateful
Iām not wondering when they will leave so I can have more to drink. God damn Iām so fucking grateful for my sobriety
Iām grateful when the gratitude list makes the tears of happiness and gratefulness flow.
Grateful for some decent sleep and feeling refreshed after a long week. Grateful for Saturday mornings with the windows open and hearing the birds chirping. Grateful I can spend some time outside today. Grateful I can read through all the gratitudes on here and it helps me realize my own at times that Iām not feeling it because Iām being a cranky ass!
I am grateful I made the choice to go visit my happy place for a few days . Gosh, I really missed them. Sometimes I think I must have been a mountain goat in a former life
.
I am grateful I am at liberty to make spontaneous decisions like this. I am grateful I know what to do when I need to fill my cup. I am grateful I have the means to do this. I am grateful my own company is enough right now.
I am grateful for the shares of the aurora borealis. They are truly beautiful. Grateful for people who still look at the world in awe and wonder. Grateful for this place and you guys
Saturday gratitude.
Iām tired. Very tired. Iāve overdone it today. Or maybe short nights with lousy sleep and bad dreams take a toll. Iām grateful tonight Iāll take sleeping meds to hopefully get a restful night.
Iām grateful I was up before sunrise. The mornings are astonishing, beautiful, like out of a fairy tale these days.
Iām grateful I asked my neighbour to help me tomorrow. Iām not able to mount the mower on the tractor alone. Fucking cardan shaft. I will learn to do that alone some day. Not today.
Iām grateful I proceeded with planting the stone wall.
Iām grateful I got to practice with the trimmer a bit again.
Iām grateful for a nice chat with a neighbour.
Iām grateful the catnet is fully mounted now. Working step by step adds up. Iām grateful babysteps and not so small work add up.
Iām grateful I thought a lot about some arrangeing stuff where I want to plant the rest of the herbs. I have to think a lot before I start doing things. Itās ok, thatās my way. Iām grateful I allow myself to rediscover my way at my pace. Itās straining sometimes.
Iām in a mixed emotions mood today. Missing the ex, feeling competent, grateful I got things done, cranky because things donāt go as smooth as I prefer, thinking about how ex and my late mum always ruined things I was happily looking forward to or was proud of. Their comments made me feel like crap. Iām grateful nobody ruins anything anymore and Iām fucking grateful and happy about all the babysteps I take. Tomorrow itās Motherās Day here and the commercial hype is gross. Iām grateful for my late parents, Iāll light a candle tomorrow. I miss and donāt miss my mum at the same time. Donāt know why I miss my ex. And I donāt care. It will pass.
Iām grateful for a bowl of strawberries and vanilla ice. A better close of the day than a sixpack. Iām grateful I donāt borrow from tomorrow anymore. Iām grateful for HALT.
Iām grateful for lounging in the deckchair, listening to the noises of countrylife, smiling with the cats, writing gratitude. This might be a start to a nice summer routine. Iām gratefully experimenting with new routines. ODAAT
Thank you for this day
I am grateful I could call my ex while I had a pretty nasty panic attack.
I am grateful he helped me to see clearly and suggested I come home already today.
I am grateful he helped me with groceries.
I am grateful my mum picked me up at the train station.
I am grateful I am now back home and donāt have to stay one more night in the tiny appartment.
I am grateful I had a nice simple dinner.
I am grateful Iāll be sleeping in my own bed tonight.
I am grateful for an uneventful train ride.
I am grateful Iāll be to bed soon.
Sleep tight sober friends
FOMO=fear of missing out. I had to look it up. Ya I thankfully donāt feel that either.
Early Saturday evening here in beautiful Wisconsin in May and Iām grateful to be sober and healthy.
Itās been a very busy week, including early this morning so my gratitude practice is just a little late. But it is important for me to stay grounded in gratitude during these busy days.
Iām grateful to be healthy and alive and sober. Iām grateful for work I mostly love and Iām grateful to have the resources to care for myself and my family. Iām grateful for a happy and sober marriage and for the support of my family.
Iām grateful that in 4 weeks I get to start my summer break and have some days of peace and quiet.
Iām grateful that my family will gather tomorrow at my house for Motherās Day and Iām grateful that we can all do this. I will be extra grateful if I can limit my anxiety and relax into the day.
It will be fine. Right?
I am grateful for such a wonderful day!
Iām grateful my husbandās 1st sgt was willing to spend 4 hours of his day with my husband so that he could have a supervised visit with our boys! Iām grateful the boys had a great time with their dad at the park and arcade and even got some fast food (we have been on a long hiatus from fast food since funds are low lol). Iām grateful that my husband thought to get me a Motherās Day card even though we are not allowed to talk to each other right now.
Iām grateful that while my husband had the kids I was able to get to the beach and tan⦠I mean burn, but still enjoy the sunshine and beautiful weather!
Iām grateful that I had some delicious healthy meals today and that I was able to get a really good run on the treadmill after the beach!
Iām grateful my bruises from the incident a couple of weekends ago are healing up and just about gone finally! Iām actually grateful that the incident happened even though that it led to all of this legal stuff and separation. If it wasnāt for that night I wouldnāt be closing in on 2 weeks sober (itās been a year since I attempted 2 weeks sober) and I wouldnāt be taking these steps to be healthier and stronger!
Happy Saturday everyone! And for all of the motherās on here fighting the good fight HAPPY MOTHERāS DAY!!
I am grateful for a hot sunny day. Air conditioner, neighboring city Vets Hall fundraiser dinner for volunteer firefighters. Dinner was great we got there early
Conversation was lovely. Grateful no conflict day. Accomplished chores. God helping me stay focused on what is important and let small greviences slip away quietly.
Good evening friends,
Iām grateful for a good day spent with my Mom, Dad, and Granny. Iām grateful for a clean house- well clean enough. Iām grateful for clean laundry, and that we have the convenience of a washer and dryer. Iām grateful that even though I write my gratitude in my journal more often these days, I still read on here everyday because I like you allā:blush:. Iām grateful for love and forgiveness
What a week full of gratitude! We won again today and play in the state semi final game next Thursday! I got a shout out at work from one of the schools I have a project for they highlighted me for doing a great job! I found my wife a great Motherās Day gift last minute
Itās an odd culmination of things coming this week, if we make the championship game next Saturday itāll be my 500th day sober exactly. Win or lose Iām grateful for a great year but what a personal accomplishment it would be if my guys pull it out and I celebrate two giant milestones on one day!
Happy Saturday / Sunday my beautiful friends
SO much gratefulness - not sure where to begin. Grateful that i have been practicing it in my head even when i canāt get it down in this thread
I am so grateful that i realized the oyster mushrooms had gone bad in the freezer (didnāt think that was a possibility) - grateful to have a reliable plan b of Pizza LOL. It was a wonderful night with my brother and watching the latest Walking Dead spin off.
I am so grateful that I have been pushing myself to move through the pain and hopefully healing this tear. Grateful that i will start rehab for my spine once i heal up. Grateful that i am finally getting out and about and starting to feel alive again. Been WAY too long I am so grateful that my inflammation and other symptoms are manageable.
I am so grateful that i was able to capture some stills of purple / green / blue sky tonight with night vision. Still not the lights i was hoping to see but something. I am grateful that i found out i wouldnāt have been able to see them from my location last night - they were visible just a bit more north from me (about 1/2 hour) - so i can stop beating myself up over having missed them last night. I am so grateful that the cloudy overcast sky cleared up tonight.
I am so grateful that i got some nice silk eye patches that have pouches for hot / cold gel packs.
I am so grateful that i got a new mini mp3 player today. mine decided to die on me. Grateful that i got a new one with a lot more features for same low price (i wanted something simple for less than $30 and i got it).
I am so grateful that i got a lot of work done on getting new quotes for my rental home insurance. Was a bit peeved that a few agencies denied me coverage because i have had the audacity to file a claim in the past. LOL ā we will give you insurance as long as you promise never to use it Grateful that i was able to get some quotes and now have to review the fine print and make a decision next week.
I am so grateful to be feeling sleepy⦠hopefully i will get to bed at a decent hour tonight. Was very grateful to have gone back to sleep this morning as i was not ready to start the day. Grateful that i have turned off my alarms so i will not be bothered tomorrow morning.
I am so grateful for my family, for my HP, for my daily practices and my movements, Grateful for having this opportunity to heal my body, grateful for my friends here in the TS community, grateful for music and laughter!
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening ā sending you all so much love!
