Keep going, it gets better. Then worse. Then better… Ad infinity. Just like life, but without the sick hangover and shitty shame and guilt. You got this.

Look who made it to a week :sunflower::musical_note::musical_notes::confetti_ball: Congrats!

I might not have much advise as I never get bored but you can search for the tag hobbies Lotsa ideas around how to fill the day.

When you have free time, dig deep into quit lit, podcast, educate yourself about how addiction works and what recovery is all about. Get out into nature, give your flat a deep clean, declutter one spot, spoil xourself with a bubble bath or some icecream or both, meditate, journal …

Day 8. I went out and got a hike in yesterday, thank you erntedank for the suggestion. Almost through the weekend! I used to secretly loathe weekends because I knew that hangover from hell was coming Sunday/Monday. Always nice to not feel like that. Thank you for all the comments. I’d love to reply but all I know how to do is heart them lol. Thanks again and see ya tomorrow! Promise.

Day 9. Cravings almost got me last night but I found ways to fill my time. As soon as I can get my mind off the cravings it seems a little easier. I’ll be going to a funeral this Friday which will test me but I know I can make it through. Clarity is a hell of a nice thing. Thanks again for your words. See ya tomorrow. Promise.

Day 11. I’m so thankful for this. I started writing positive thoughts, at least 3 while sober just so that if I get tempted I can read them. Feeling good about leaving town and not drinking or anything while away. I know I can do it. Thank you very much for the kind words. I’ll see ya tomorrow for day 12! Promise.

Day 15/16. My checking didn’t get posted and that make sense as I went in and out of Wi-Fi yesterday with all the planes and airports. But it’s good to be here on day 16 and feeling great! This time I am sure I’ll get to 30 but right now I’m going to focus on 16. Thank you all for the kind words and thoughts. I appreciate them all! I’ll see you guys tomorrow for day 17. Promise.
