Day 10

It's been an up and down morning. My addictive voice told me I can maybe smoke weed in the future which pissed my wife off (she's currently in recovery from alcohol as well). I think she got jealous at the prospect of me getting a buzz in the future. I think it's time we both got sponsors to bounce this stuff off of rather than each other. We are good now though.

I don't know if trying to read your wife's mind is a good use of your own brainpower.

How 'bout just the fact that intaking a mind altering substance is a really bad idea to anyone who has any sense at all and a horrifically bad idea for an addict/alcoholic.

Congrats on Day 10.

We talked it out and that was definitely what was going on. And we also came to the same conclusion as you and need to just take things one day at a time. I'm not getting high today and I'm not drinking today.

WOW congrats on day 10

I think the opposite would happen. I think you would be jealous that she kept her sobriety intact while you got a buzz off weed.

I do not think she would be jealous she can choose to create a hazy, shameful, guilt ridden buzz whenever she likes.


You are doing great! Keep sober 24 hours at a time. Awesome

Thank you guys/gals! I went to a Big Book meeting and got the courage to volunteer to read. After that I got the courage to speak openly and it felt great. I don't remember who suggested I try reading first but it worked like a charm!
