This makes me smile
Did @jane.c delete her account? She had sent me a very nice and thoughtful message a few days ago or so and I was planning on getting back to her today after thinking on it for a few. But now all of our messages/correspondence is gone, and I can’t tag her/find her.
Yes, she did.
Thanks. That’s really too bad. She was always so nice to me. I wish I had gotten back to her beforehand.
Oh that’s hard news to hear…
Now I’m sad. Truly.
I miss my sober twin benedictine. Such a classy lady.
Oh wow. I hope she is OK. She had thoughtful posts.
Hey @anon12657779 thanks for reaching out!
I was off for vacation with my girlfriend in the province. But even couple of days before I was having lots of papers to finish before leaving and got away from TS and phone. Got some good news and celebrated. Because my girlfriend was around I felt comfortable drinking during vacation, because when I’m not alone it is actually fine, but this is a dangerous path for me because when I’ll get alone I know I would start thinking about drinking alone because I had « handled » it the past weeks. But truth is I’m not really handling it, I’m just fighting it still. But I had some great insight on it during the last couple of weeks with my therapist and my family. I’ve been giving a lot of thoughts on the obsessive part of myself and saw how much it is this part of me that drags me down into drinking when I make alcohol my obsession… This part of my personality is stronger than I thought, and it need to be addressed even more than drinking itself, because if I just stop without taking care of it, I just get even more obsessed and it become unmanageable. So, I would say seriously I’m going good, vacation were resourceful. But I am still fighting for a better self, thought sobriety is not at the moment my main goal, it remains never to far in my head because I know it will always be a possibility for me to fall into this black hole.
How are you? As I am finishing my vacation alone today, I was very happy to see your message. Even if I’m not totally dedicated to sobriety again or yet, I feel like this is always a safe place because of people like you.
Hope you having a good day !
