I hope you’re able to get some rest soon.
4:45 am preparing for a hike! Dang, you’re an early bird, but then again… I get it if you’re in Arizona!
I mean, 8 months sober definitely helps being cognizant with no sleep. And just for the record, I am from California - but live in Nebraska.

It was time to check back in with Sober Time because I have not in quite a while. What am I doing? I wanted to go to a meeting, but tonight is a smoking night and I refuse.
Tomorrow makes two years nine months sober and I’m really feeling down in the dumps for the first time in a very long time. My youngest brother died suddenly 16 months ago and his widow told me yesterday that she’s getting married in six months… it just dawned on me while typing this that the wedding is planned the month of my brother’s two year death. I’m not coping very well.
Hi @Delaine54 im sorry to hear of your brothers death it must be very hard for you . What do you mean by a “smoking night at the meeting “
First I want to congratulate you on your 2 years and 9 months of sobriety.
My condolences to you regarding your brother. I’m sorry you’re feeling a lot of unhappy feelings and emotions. Have you thought about attending a grief class? I attended a “grief share” group at my church. It’s Christ based but there are other meetings out there if this type isn’t for you. It has helped me tremendously. My younger brother passed away October 24, 2021. Three weeks later my daughter passed away on November 12, 2021. August through the end of November are the worst months for me. My daughter’s birthday is coming up, September 12th. I start getting anxieties in August dreading the upcoming months of their death anniversary. I drank the past two years during this time, but I am confident I am going to get through this year with my AA support group, God, and the will to want to stay sober. Just know, you’re not alone and we’re here for you.
My Homegroup meets seven days a week.three days a week they allow smoking. It’s a private building so there’s no smoking laws.

Thank you for the advice about a grief class. I grew up in the church so I have a strong background in what God can do for me and I prayed today about this unhappiness that I am feeling.
I am so sorry for your loss and I understand the calendar can be a trigger for anxiety.
