Glad to hear that. I definitely understand getting sick or having the flu can really throw you off your routine and I feel like for me that was the worst part when I recently got over my respiratory infection. It’s funny because in the past I would’ve loved any excuse to lay around or not do anything even if it meant being sick but those days are long gone. I much rather go to work and to my meetings and everything else I’m doing and be able to go to the skate park then be laying in a dark room depressed. Playing hooky used to be fun lol it’s not anymore. Anyway glad you’re better.

Yeah I’ll definitely be back in probably about three months. I’m definitely going to make this a part of my routine every year to take a step away from the smart phone and Internet for a few months. It’s not even about Talking Sober as much as it is about all the other aspects of having a smart phone and Internet. It’s easier said than done sometimes to be like I’m just going to watch a couple clips on YouTube and next thing you know three hours has passed. During my little hiatus a little bit ago I was so productive and honestly had so much less anxiety. But this is just my experience that the Internet and smart phone can easily overwhelm me. I definitely have to pay attention to what’s really going on internally

Take care of yourself and your kitty cat! Wishing you the very best with everything! Thanks for saying something instead of just disappearing and thanks for leaving your content and not deleting it. See you in a couple months.! Best wishes.

Thank you guys very much. Beyond grateful for this community. Have Learned so much And hope to continue to give back in the future!!
Definitely going to do some more reading around on here the next couple hours and might make another post on this thread. Just had an interesting conversation with this homeless guy who is struggling with alcohol. Unfortunately he’s unable to connect the dots in the fact that the alcohol is causing his problems in life. I tried to talk to him about how I understand how being homeless becomes normal but that he can live a life without alcohol and be content plus Be able to adjust to regular life. I gave him my number and told him to call me if he wants help getting into medical detox or just needs someone to listen. Moments like that or conversations like that that make me so grateful to come back to my apartment and relax in the air conditioning. Sometimes it’s the little things. So glad I’m not out there walking the streets and sleeping on concrete. Miserable and exhausted. So grateful
