Thank you @jonathanlee213 i truly appreciate your presence in my life and recovery. Your always helpful.
My shoulder has been really bothering me and I’m trying anything and everything meditating, praying I’m running out of healthy ways to deal with this. I need help
Maybe a massage if you can get the time. My back and neck really bothering me too been trying to stretch, sleep different position every night just nothing helping, think i need see a chiropractor get an adjustment.
Well I cut my hair and had it colored today
Pictures?
Sure I’m getting ready to jump in the shower but as soon as I get out nothing drastic I just wanted a little change is all. I’m changing inside so why now a little on the outside
All me no fillers no make up but my hair is still wet so it’s lighter then in these pics and I took quite a bit of length off
It looks great Hollz! You look like a million bucks. Better actually - because money is boring, doesn’t have anything interesting to say. You are interesting to talk to, which makes you better than a million bucks!
Feels nice right? It’s nice to take time & care for ourselves. I like that. Time to rest, care for our bodies, give them space, time, and attention
@Matt i feel so much better. And I look a million times better then I looked a month ago I honestly am surprised when I look in the mirror that I’m looking at myself
Beautiful! I love it Holly!
I never really took care of myself during active addiction so when I get a cut and color now it feels amazing. We deserve to treat ourselves.
So I had a pretty good day. I went to the doctor. went and worked for a couple hours because they needed help at work. did some reading on here and on my own, went to the store and came home n made chicken and noodles, homemade stuffing mashed potatoes and biscuits. Already have gotten my shower. Threw the laundry in and made the schedule for work
I’m feeling empowered and insightful and I really like it
Mmmm mashed potatoes & biscuits
Sounds like a wonderful day of little constructive things. Those are great days in life
Started off a little shaky but I learned something so that is always a great thing and I look at my days now against my days before I got sober and can’t help but wonder how I lived like that for so long
It’s like waking up after a disturbing sleep. It’s wonderful but also you can’t believe what you went through while you were out
Give Lifering.org a try! Online meetings and nothing like AA. Most groups have wonderful people in them and have great cross talk. They’ve been huge for me.
Thank you
Good morning everyone. I hope you all have a great day and stay blessed
You too Hollz!
35 days into my new life of sobriety and I can hardly recognize myself in the mirror. My eyes are bright and not bloodshot. I’m gaining weight back because I’m actually eating instead of having a diet of straight alcohol and more importantly I actually can look at myself in a mirror and not have to look away because of guilt and shame. My children are proud of me and love me and that is worth looking at
