That pretty much sums up 8 days of sobriety. I’m still waiting to be contracted for work. But it seems possible I will be employed soon. I have read refuge recovery and LOVE IT, couldn’t put it down. I want to reread to highlight. I’m sleeping till noon and watching Netflix late, so like 10 hours of sleep a night. Today I received the SMART recovery workbook and it looks amazing, can’t wait to start working on it and doing some internal work. I exercise everyday at the gym, track calories on my fitness pal.... not a single pound lost.

So that’s been my first week. I’m getting odd cravings and have to avoid certain places I relate to alcohol. Oddly after the gym I want to drink 🤷🏼*♀️ I avoid the pool and beach because they are huge drinking triggers, very sad considering as a child I enjoyed these places sober.

I posted this for any others maybe feeling sluggish, avoidance and cravings too.
