2 weeks sober

BOOYAKASHA!!!

Well it hasnt always been easy, but still ive known throughout that I am better off for not drinking/smoking

thats luvsunshine. I know what you mean, but I think its more just me feeling isolated and expecting too much. I am making new non-drinking friends now.

had a hard few days. I have sore gums at the front of my mouth and has been really painful. Medication seemed to make it worse, but at least it feels a little better today. Had to fight the urge to buy some weed last night, I nearly did but decided against it. I wasn't wanting it so much for the high, more the pain relief as paracetomol wasn't doing much. Still tender, but feels better today though.

I am back again and since writing last I have been using either cannabis or alcohol every day. Weed just makes me feel numb and totally disconnected. Alcohol just makes my thoughts race. I know I can do better without it and yet I still do it.

Many of us had false starts Pete

Hi Pete. Glad your back. Just keep trying. They say it gets better when you get sober. I believe them now.
