Day 1 from staying away from perks/ fake perks. It’s been a long hard journey to just get to day one. Trying not to think about it. Staying busy at work but a lot of things trigger me to start thinking about getting more.
I’m worried about going home. I can never make it when I drive home from work. Usually texting my dealer when I’m getting off the exit. I ask my dealer to block and they did. I’m just afraid if I can’t get anything what I will do. Walk to Kensington and somerset who know what I’ll find down there death most likely.
Welcome Scott Staying busy at work helped me. This online community has been a priceless tool too. I’m only day 35 but when I was day one I doubted day 35 was possible. Just get through today and tomorrow worry about tomorrow.
Do whatever you need to do to get through the day. Then the same thing tomorrow. Before you know it the days will start to pile up and you will look back and not even recognize the old you.
