Day 5 - still going strong
Day 5 - still going strong
I'm getting ready to meet my fiancee for lunch and I have to pick him up from the police department he works at in 30 minutes. Tonight we are going to continue our Harry Potter marathon we started after I got home from the hospital. I'm trying to stay as busy as possible. Yesterday I went on a walk with my kids, we went out for ice cream and then we drove around belting out the lyrics to Disney movie songs. I think my kids are happy I am back to myself! My 12 year old even drew me a picture last night (see attached file) and left it on my laptop for me to find this morning. I am also going to look through all of the resources everyone provided in my last post - thank you! I'm hoping to get a daily devotional and a few books for starters. A few weeks ago when I was on Day 5 I was already struggling and then gave in on Day 7. I'm not struggling at all yet, although I'm sure the temptation will come back with time. I just can't forget last week and everything that I have at stake. This time I have to stay strong and keep fighting. I forget who it was, but someone said they made a video of themselves to help them remember to never go back. I thought it was a great idea and did the same.

Hello, and congrats on day 5. I'm not on here as much as I once was, so maybe I missed it, but do you have a thread explaining your "Day 1"? We seem to be around the same age, and I saw you mentioned the hospital, so I'm curious to hear more about your journey.
Hmm I'm not sure how (or if I even can) link a previous thread, but it's the one titled, "I'm taking myself to the hospital" and then I wrote another one titled, "I'm home."
Congrats on 5 days StrengthNMe
