Hello everyone,

Today is my 7th day sober and 5th day without cigarettes! I owe much of my sanity and success to the kindness and support of everyone here. Last Saturday I was in complete and total despair and hopelessness. I can hardly imagine that just one week later I am full of hope, strength, and purpose. How miraculous!

I created a daily treatment plan for myself and I am so glad I am encouraged to make it. It has helped me to stay focus because I tend to be a bit scattered brain at times.

Anyways, I just like to share with you guys my plan maybe it could be helpful to you too:

My Simple Daily Plan (A Self Rehab Treatment) =P

1. Say at least 3 positive affirmations in the mirror in the morning

2. Meditation 20 minutes a day

3. Exercise 30 minutes a day

4. Write down 7 things I am grateful for

5. Work with other alcoholics

6. Journal

7. Be kind to self and others

Thank you ALL

Good luck on your journeys!

That sounds like a solid plan. I especially like the part about Gratitude. That is a big part of my recovery.

Thanks for sharing this awesome plan! I read something almost exactly like it in a book about peak performance. It basically said highly effective people have certain practices they do every day, such as: meditation, exercise, gratitude, journaling, and affirmations.

So I predict you will progress from this first big accomplishment (sobriety) and go on to hit new heights in every area of your life.

Keep up the great work,Empath!

That's great Empath.

You might want to add, check into SR.

I'm on day 9 and found your plan to be useful and encouraging

Excellent and there is tremendous power in recovery helping others as you have listed, as a word of encouragement don't forget to help yourself, sometimes we all need help, at least in my case I do and am fortunate to be accountable to an addictions counselor weekly to discuss where I am, what I am doing and where I am headed and with his help I fine tune the plan to ensure Andrew stays on course and sober.

Yes! However, that seems almost unnecessary to list because I'm quite literally on SR all the time, lol. Do they have meetings for SR addiction?

Congratulations Empath

That is a great plan -- if you find a meeting for SR addiction, let me know.
