Checking in for Day One. Head's cleared from previous relapse the night before last, just managed to take some food after not eating for over 24 hours.
Feeling pretty determined to do this one, especially after how well I've done over the past few months. Birthday's June 25th, hoping I can celebrate 31st having had nearly 2 full months sober.

Passed the 24 hour mark. One day down, 30 to go.
Feeling agitated somewhat still over facing a move to a new place and a new job at a new school. But should be OK.
Trying to focus on the clear-headedness I'm starting to feel and getting that back again.

Hi 
Starting day 1 (again). I have done so much better since finding SR, but haven't been anywhere near the 100% sober that I want to be. I read posts on SR several hours every day but very rarely post. Hopefully joining this class will be the extra accountability I need to push through the tough days.
Looking forward to supporting everyone here. I know we can do it together! Have a great day everyone, I will check back in tonight.

Well, I flunked April like an all-star. I'll sign on if I first manage to keep 96 hours of sobriety. How's that?
I really need to change though, because I'm not sure if this hole gets much deeper, before I run out of places to dig.
The thing that aggravates me the most is, there's tons of people who would give anything to be in my shoes, and I could care less. How would you like say 800 hours of pending work @ $100/hour that you can do from home, or contract out assuming you can train the necessary people remotely?
Plus pretty much unlimited work. Get through that 800 hours, and there'll probably be 3000 hours waiting to be done. It's the way these things go. And yet, I could care less. Past two months, I've done maybe 5 hours of work.
Something has to give here.

Its 1am here - just got in from hanging out in a bar on Jedyod Road, Chiang Rai.
But still sober - drank only fruit shakes. But still left early-ish. Was lacking in energy, mood a bit depressed. Hoping the latter clears up soon, as when I start teaching again, I'm going to need to be energised, focused etc.

And here's another Howdy do from April.
11 days sober.
I drank daily for years. The past 3 years drinking vodka heavily. Vodka and coffee for breakfast kinda stuff. All day long.
Severe anxiety and depression.
Divorce, fired from job due to performance, and bankruptcy. All due to alcohol and drugs.
I am very happy to report that anxiety is gone, depression is all but gone. I have a spring to my step and a positive outlook now.
You can do this! You'll be very glad you did!
I am very excited for you guys and gals.
IT'S TIME TO RECLAIM YOUR LIVES!!
