Good morning, everyone! I agree, Cali: It is great to see all the posts!
Midton, I hope that you are feeling better.
Fruity, I think it is amazing that you are in detox: that is such a wise and brave decision. Brava!
FBL--congrats on 12 days, you can do it.
And Juno, on 8--that is fantastic.
Gemma, I am thinking about you. What you said about your bf really resonated with me and some past relationships. For me, it was a chicken and an egg situation: did I drink because of the bf, or did I have this bf because I drank. Sobriety helps clear some things up, although not always in easy ways.
Yesterday, I had a very long day, but it felt super productive and I found myself calm and focused, moving from thing to thing with clarity and purpose. So wonderful! I even sat in a very contentious meeting, able to listen without enmeshment. That felt good.
Slept pretty good last night too. I woke up a few times, but I was able to roll back over and fall asleep.
14 days today! Thank you, all of you, for your support and wisdom. It has made a huge difference on this journey.
