Day 1032. Been using the short version of the Serenity prayer lately. “Fuck it”. I can only control myself and how I respond to life. Everything else aint my problem!
Welcome Noora!
Anxiety is a hard feeling. It fills us like a fog, and it makes it hard to see.
Early sobriety is especially an anxious time, for many people, because it’s weird walking our path and seeing and feeling life and emotion, without the crutch - the numbness - of using.
Be gentle with yourself and give yourself time and rest. Also, keep checking in, reading, learning - it helps feel less alone
I find this list helpful:
Welcome again
My daughter and I after a 5-mile hike. Our relationship is stronger and I feel so much better sober. Beautiful day, beautiful girl, beautiful way to live!
Hiking in Sedona, AZ. This area is supposed to have multiple vortex (vortices?) that have different energy flow. The hike was beautiful……can’t say much for the vortex
That’s awesome! It’s my first time- I’d love to come back and do some of the other hikes during the week when it isn’t so crowded.
Looking exhausted yesterday after 17km cross country as part of a relay team in the 64km Kuranda to Port Douglas K2PD run… Surprisingly liberating…
Relaxing day exploring nature today…35 days AF
@1in8billion congrats on the run! I used to live up that way. Beautiful place!
That looks Amazing
Where is that?
It’s in Nightcap National Park Nsw
What a great picture!
You’re just down the road.
Hey, I didn’t really know where or what to post. So here I am. I Just downloaded this ap today. I guess I just wanted to say hello and see if anyone has any recommendations for boards on here I should follow for support. Been alcohol free for 85 days.
Welcome Dena. Congratulations on your 85 days. Have a good read around. Lots of great threads for support.
2 good threads I like to visit.
I hope to see you around.
