11 months today! Recently I’ve been unmotivated and feel like I’m in a rut… I’ve seen previous posts that this is sometimes normal when you approach a year of sobriety. I’m just tired and burnt out. I just remind myself… the way I feel right now would be escalated if I was drinking. Moments like this are exactly why I stopped… so instead of letting these emotions bring me down I will work through them in a healthy way. I try to be positive… but damn life gets hard sometimes.

Congrats on 11 months! Almost to that 1 year milestone.

I felt that way myself coming up on my one year, I think a lot of it had to do with the ā€œnewnessā€ of sobriety wearing off; like how you’re less excited about driving a new car after you’ve had it for a while and it’s not so new anymore.

It passed for me and I made sure to continue to work on my sobriety each day. Just keep doing what you’re doing because you’re killin’ it!

Congratulations Katie on your 11 months. :boom::boom:
Wow :star_struck:
It’s been so much fun watching you get this far. You are doing this!! How cool is that?

When I got into my eleventh month I started feeling like it was Christmas. :christmas_tree:And I was so excited the big day was coming.
Once you get over this hiccup enjoy your 4 weeks of Christmas :christmas_tree:
So excited for you.

I hit a rut right before and right after my 1 year. I always just get back to the basics when I’m feeling off. Awesome job on 11 months!

This happens. I have found that setting a ā€œBig, Hairy, Audacious Goalā€ (BHAG) is a sure way of steering out of the rut. Can be anything…run a marathon or half. Get a new degree or certification. Climb a smallish mountain. Read the entire works of your favorite author. Learn to play an instrument and perform in a recital. Something that has a defined end, with measurable milestones requiring focus and discipline.

At least this is what I do. Feel free to ignore if it suits you
