15 days sober. I haven’t been this long without alcohol in probably 13 or 14 years. My biggest challenge is boredom now. I know I have a million things I could do but sometimes lack the motivation to do anything. Any advice? I need to justt push through those times I guess.
You always have the best advice @Oliverjava. I’m thankful for everyone on this forum but i feel my ideas and outlook on things go with what you say. You wrote somewhere about how if our actions aren’t matching up with our morals then that can cause problems. Simple really, but I never heard that. I have a list now of things I’d like to change and work on and I believe that once I slowly make these a way of life that I will be free from this addiction and anxiety and depression… thank you!
I’m in the same situation as you. It gets dark at 5pm and I find myself stuck in the house with nothing to do. I’ve been thinking about swimming again which was always a great way to relieve stress and I always felt really good about myself afterwards. Anything that consumes time and makes you feel productive helps though.
I saw a fantastic motivating list of things to do instead of use on a post here about two days ago - was pretty inspiring. I’ll try find it
