And I am officially back!
To the friends I’ve made here, I’ve missed yas! To anyone new, I look forward to meeting you!
I had some good time under my belt, but fell back into the bottle head first over a stupid choice, then just lond of swam around in it for awhile.
Kind of had that old mentality of “yeah, I got this, I’m in controll!” … yeah, no… no I wasnt haha.
It wasnt long at all before I was right back to where I started, blowing all my cash on drinks, stumbling home at the end of the night, waking up feeling gross and just repeating the cycle on pretty much a daily basis.
Started to loose focus of everything I worked so hard for during the time I was sober and worse of all started to loose myself.
Well, enough is enough and i am back!
The booze is gone!
And after I got out of bed today and had my shower I popped a nicotine patch onto my shoulder!
Good luck! I am also back!.
Trying to achieve that this time it is going to be the definitive one, but no thinking in longer basis: day a day, and not hearing bad internal voices.
Welcome back!
Day by day is the way to take it.
It’s just like walking. When we go for a walk we may have a destination in mind but we can only get there one step at a time.
Glad your back! We got this!
I’m glad you were able to make it back Justin. It was great to see Rhune. I was hoping the cat dragged you in as well
Seriously glad you made it back. And thanks for enforcing the notion that maybe “I got this.” Because I’m pretty sure I don’t.
Good luck with the cigs too. I always kept a good size McDonald’s straw cut in half in my mouth and sucked fresh air. And lots of water. And kept worry beads in my pocket to keep my hands busy.
Thanks everyone! Feels great to be back on the right path again.
I’m gonna try and be as active as I was before on here, though my new job does keep me pretty busy, but I’ll he sure to at least check in everyday
