Nearly 11months

I am nearing my 11months mark of sobriety, but am trying not to make a big deal out of it just not to jinx it......I have had up to four years up before I went really downhill the last 5 years with periods of 14monhts sobriety whilst I was pregnant, eventhough I did have a slip with my second pregnancy brought on by massive bouts of depression in the third trimester, I am still on antibuse everyday to keep me safe and learn how to trust myself, I am still going to group therapy once a week and see a psychiatrist (I am not too sure how much she is helping to be honest, lately have felt she is a bit of a waste of money).......once a month am also on antidepressants to keep myself I guess sane, my exercies which is jogging everymorning is still there..........(it means time to myself, time to break rules, time to just be with me, me and my head, )........ I am not too sure now what my point was on this post. Am on step five, but stil struggling to I guess confess my sins, so I kind of have moved on to step six partly confessing some of my past not all of it ........... I do not know here I am rambling on....

Congratulations Sidney

I'm not in AA but it doesn't seem like half doing a step is doing right by yourself to me - this is your journey after all - short cuts are kinda like cheating on yourself, aren't they?

have you spoken with your sponsor - maybe thats a good way to go?

Congratulations on 11 months. As Dee said, have you talked to your sponsor about your step work?
