Not forgetting about you James @ifs
Sending light and love out to @ifs as well. I miss your positive presence and wise words. Wishing you a calm day.
I’ve been thinking about James a lot lately. Miss him and praying for his well-being.
I’m still sober!!! Fairly happy and been offered another job in recovery so it’s going pretty good. Thanks 4 reaching out.
Thought about you today @stop.the.ride and I wanted to give you a shout out! I hope I’m finding you well.
Hi! I’m still around. Still not drinking! Thank you for the shout out, I hope all is well with you too
Was thinking about posting an update soon…
Awesomeness! I’m glad all is well on your side of the world! Same here! Things are going well! Just taking in the summer and enjoying nature. Trying to minimize social media time lol!
So happy your doing well! Hope talk to you soon!
Be blessed!
Hey hey there! I’m still living the nightmare of restaurant management in covid times, hoping that people will start wanting to work again and that said people will be worth it. Things have been rough the last year and a half, I’ve hit one of the darkest depressions I’ve ever had and am struggling with anxiety that is worse than it’s ever been sober. And let’s not talk about stress. Lol
I’m 4 years and 2+ months sober, so that’s still a thing. I won’t drink because I don’t drink (or do drugs), in the wise words of @Yoda-Stevie . Life may be the biggest of challenges right now but none of it is worth drinking or using over.
I think something that people need to hear at some point is that things can get really bad and still be better than the life we left behind. I read things like that here and here I am to tell it to others. I never imagined the stress, anxiety and depression I am going through right now. Never. Especially once I got sober. I thought life would always be good because I don’t drink or do drugs anymore, and it is in a lot of ways, but damn have I been knocked down a few rungs on the pole. Fortunately I built a strong foundation and created a support network that is AMAZING and I haven’t come anywhere near throwing that 4+ years down the drain.
Friends, life on life’s terms is no joke. It’s very real. But I’ll be damned if every single one of us isn’t capable of handling it if we do the next right thing.
Hope you are doing good, friend.
I think we all can agree
FUCK COVID-19!!!
Glad to see you're still standing Megan. I didn't expect otherwise thoughHow have you been, my young friend?
I’ve had my ups and downs, but life’s definitely on an upwards spiral. And I think it’ll become even better now that the new school year has started today
I am sorry that you are struggling these days, but proud of you that you are holding fast on your sobriety.
I often compare these last few years of sobriety to the first few years after I accepted Christ. Neither guarantee I won’t suffer my portion of rough or bad days, nor will it prevent me from experiencing misfortune. What they both do is ensure that little of this “bad luck” is a result of my own actions or poor decisions. I am of clear mind and have something to hold on to when the skies darken.
We won’t drink, because we don’t drink. We are non-drinkers.
Required reading for every newbie, and not so newbie! Hang in there, Megan.
Great to read a post from you as always. I hope things turn around for you #fuckcovid.
