status report

Well a month has flown by since I made up my mind to live sober. I am living fuller and accomplishing more now than ever. Still not smoking the Winstons either. You know, the stress is still there regardless of what I put into my body and I just have to grow a pair and deal.

I am now powerless to good coffee!

Have a great day!
Brian

I am currently resisting my best friends Ben and Jerry. When I see them, I want to use. Red Velvet Cake ice cream. Need I say more?

Congrats on your sober time!

I would check out healthy ways to deal with your stress. When you say you have to grow a pair it maybe sounds like you are bottling it up inside. I would suggest checking out ways you can truly alleviate your stress, rather than just ignoring it.

Things I would suggest would be exercise, meditation, prayer, using a punching bag (my personal fave), stuff like that.

Anyways, congratulations all the same, just a quick thought that might make things easier for you.


Best wishes,
