The Feelings Thread
Im feeling happy and satisfied its day 7 for me and things have gone really well for me although i have been a bit hyper for the last couple of days. Im also feeling aprehensive, weekends have always been a bad time for me, I think im only going to be able to get to one meeting and my family have their own commitments. I think i will be ok but im still a bit worried. x
Feeling okay too. Strange dreams seem to be going around. I've been having
them too lately..
But, they are just dreams, after all. To me, they are working out something
for my good in my waking life. I choose to look at it this way...
Hugs to everyone today!

Still feeling crummy but I did walk the dogs. Nice warm day but I feel so woozy and sick, and don't know why. I felt a bit better after walking the dogs tho, from the fresh air and sunshine.
Wow, nice to see people still posting on here. Sorry guys,I haven't been on SR since Mon. I've been so busy. Having a hard time trying to keep up with everything. I was never this busy when i drank. LOL
I feel the same way Ananda. I'm almost 10 months sober and still have a hard time trying to figure out how I feel unless its obvious like depression or anger. Those two i was always good at anyways where I felt like that 99% of the time when i was still drinking and using.
Anyway, I feel good today. I'm actually 301 days sober today. Yesterday i went shopping with my sister and saw my little 3 year old niece. I got to see where she goes to nursery school when we picked her up. Her and all the other little rugrats. LOL So it was a really good day yesterday too.

I just had pizza too, Nands, but it was lukewarm crap!
However, I just finished watching a DVD with my daughter for our date night: August Rush. Fantastic, feel good film! I applauded at the end and got an eye roll from the kid! LOL

Hi everyone...
I feel a tiny bit better today. Not as many feelings of using. Still a little down. It has to do with me feeling like a failure because I want to quit the gym. Old behavior.
I went to a meeting and out to dinner with sober friends.
I am blessed to have wonderful friends in my life.
Tomorrow I am going to a sponsees wedding and then the Houston rockets basketball game.

yeah...thanks n.leaf.......quite a rage storm for a minite....only got a little icky with a few people and am under "control" now....I'll work it out without a drink!
I think it takes time to really get to an understanding of my feelings. sometimes they just seem to jump on me...but tht is an illusion...I just missed the build up

I'm feeling a little freaked out and anxious about being clean and sober for 9 days. Some of it is physical but a lot of it is mental. I'm a little anxious as to how my life is going to change. I know it can be for the best, but what if it is not?
Need to just give it time, I guess. For now I am mostly a nervous ball of fragmented energy.

Today I still feeling Relief with a capital R! Also feeling much more energetic, and getting something done. Went for a long walk this morning with 2 friends. It felt really good to get out in the cold and walk hard! I will have to remember this feeling when the urge to drink hits me!
Not really sure how i feel today. LOL I started this feelings thread and sometimes it's hard for me to identify how I feel. You know what I mean?
Today I almost forgot that I have to open up and make coffee for my home group. I have the key to the church. I don't feel like it cause I have to get there so early. But i will; cause I am responsible.

I still feel a little odd...but a step closer to others today. It is ALL about relationships! Yep I will probably fit that in every thread today...i need the reminder.
Don't worry scaredy...I think most of us are trying to get beyond recognizing only extreme or general emotions.
