Talked about the demons in my head. I put action to what I have learned, that I am powerless over other people, places and things. I reminded myself that all I can control is my own actions. I went to yoga and meditated, connected with the light inside of me. I am still sober.

I went to my happy place, the bookstore, and walked around for an hour looking for new treats to take home.

I went to bed early because I was tired and craving a drink. Not sure why the craving is coming back… I think the good weather is making me want a drink. So. I just went to bed. Now it’s 330 am and I’m on here … will probably go back to sleep another couple hours before starting my day. But I didn’t drink. Now to do it all again today. Who would have thought weather would be a trigger? Just gotta get thru it one day at a time.

I was afraid to go out on day two (yesterday). There was no power at work and I had the whole day off… I stayed mostly at home vs feel the vulnerability of being out after my memories of passing out the last time I drank. Today I will hit the gym before work. I can’t wait for work so it can give me purpose to the day, I I know this feeling shall too pass.

Great job in realizing yourself and keeping your sobriety safe in these early stages. Our addictive brain really will do many thing’s to get you back. Hold on to the feelings from the last time so that you can create a better future. Congrats on another day sober!

Took an hour lie down (i really can’t nap during the day) this helped rejuvenate me and I still made it into work in time.
Made a vegetable stir fry and ordered some veg spring rolls as I did not have time to make those in time (try to eat dinner by 7:30 at the latest).
Doing some breathing exercises to help get to sleep

Didn’t allow myself time to think about my addictions and now i’m wrapping up the day and too tired to give in even if the feeling arises - so all in all a win!
