Day 3 done. Morning of day 4. The first time I stopped drinking, it was difficult to relax when I got in bed. My legs just wanted to fidget. Once this passed, sleep was good. When I have reset, it was because I had 2 or 3 drinks in one day. Then right back on the wagon. No sleep problems when that happens.

Good to hear! How many days are you at now?

Hey, soā€¦ life is SO busy. I donā€™t have time to check in like I used to. Iā€™m ok. I havenā€™t been great but Iā€™m beginning to get back on the better me path. We are settling into our new routine and things are smoother. I feel like Iā€™ve disappointed you guys by disappearing but I have had to say no to some things to make my life less chaotic. Best love to you guys. I really hope you are well and I am thinking of you from a distance! :heart::heart:

Glad to hear you are still on the bumpy path, these are not easy times for sure. I canā€™t even imagine with young ones at homeā€¦ Take care!

I was at 3 complete days when I wrote the above post. Drank last night so back to working on day 1.

Maybe change your name from ā€œThreeā€ to ā€œThree hundredā€, lol Seems to be a self fulfilling prophecy!

You can do this! One day at a time. Iā€™m on Day 3 right now. My brain is starting to tell me I can have a drink but Iā€™m going to stay distracted by having a bath and reading a book tonight instead.

Howā€™s everyone doing today? Iā€™m feeling pretty sluggish to be honestā€¦ but I did manage a short walk with the dog this afternoon.

we miss you here but happy to hear from you. you ā€˜soundā€™ a bit more at ease. good for you. all the rest will come. and no apologies. :heart:

hey hey! had a good night sleep which rarely happens. I always then feel like a totally diferent person. like I am a kid again. excited for a new day. and I can use that in my new motivation of staying sober. I talked to doktors about it. coming clean, even thought the amounts never seem to worry a doktor. I need to now to save my life. now I do not have the dog I can start taking the meds I was prescriped. testing 2 types with slim chances but what ifā€¦ something helps for the pain. then I would never even have to drink again :wink: How are you now? :heart:

Thank you for the encouragement! Day 3 is when my will power starts to go down. I will need to be busy!

Iā€™m doing good, also slept good last night although had weird dreams. Dreamt about a poltergeist in my house which ended up being 2 little dogsā€¦ and then also dreamt about jumping off of a cruise ship and falling like 15 stories into the ocean. Super strange.

I made it through day 3, just starting day 4. I didnā€™t end up having a bath or reading last night so thatā€™s on the radar for tonight. Last night I went to bed early and watched YouTube videos for an hour before bed and was asleep by about 10 pm.

Well that is an interesting dreamā€¦ no need for Netflix anymore :tired_face:

Hope everyone is good - feeling my group of troopers is gone :sleepy: :heart:

@RosaCanDo how are you doing ?
