Set up my first therapy sessions. Nap, sleep is important especially after a night shift :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:. Journal. Keep thoughts of being mindful and my calming breathing in the back of my mind for times that they may be needed. Coaching 30 5-7 year olds at hockey might be one of those times. Have a great day everyone

Checking in here. Offered a friend to chat with her husband who took a job in Cali and tells her daily he’s slowly cutting down… (he’s been to residential treatment twice).

Thanks.

I, personally, have to keep doin’ what got me here or it becomes too slippery of a slope. I mean, I was certainly diligent in my active addiction so . . . :man_shrugging:t3:

Keeping everything sober in my eyes view.
Doing tasks sober and realizing I couldn’t or wouldn’t accomplish anything while drinking
Knowing I am happy sober. I was never happy drunk! I was not a “Happy Drunk” I was miserable every moment everyday.

I’ve been working on my anxiety with a therapist. I realized yesterday that anxiety is like arguing with yourself. It’s all in my head, old, habituated behavior. I don’t have to continue the fight.
