About 4 weeks ago I bought a bottle of vodka. My bf was away for the night and I bought it as I temporarily believed the lies. Just tonight, no one will know, you'll have"fun", you deserve a break from this sobriety thing it's such hard work...... It has been in my bedding cupboard ever since as I just couldn't do it. I couldn't drink it. Why is it still there? I mean talk about making things harder than they need to be. It's going right now. I can't tip it I don't want to smell it. Outside bin will have to......just telling in myself sorry I didnt sooner xxx Congrats on not opening that bottle... |
Jo, good for you on getting rid of it! I'm in for another day of sobriety. Congratulations to today's celebrants and all who commit to sobriety today. I've been feeling a little resentment or anger lately. I need to work through it because in the past it's been the first step to a relapse . I guess recognizing it is a good thing . I know part of the answer is acceptance but, that's can be a difficult thing to achieve for me because I can be pretty stubborn at times. |
Good Morning...7:15 Am - 24 more |

That was a lightbulb moment for me. It's not easy to work through the anger & resentment but you do have the power and you can do it. Take care! :grouphug: |

I read something Dee wrote a while ago about drinking on a resentment. It was something like pouring poison down your throat and expecting the other person to die..... That guy knows his stuff! Anyway you're certainly not alone feeling this way......I hope you find some peace today JSM :grouphug: |
Starting day two, still pretty sick after a week long drink fest. Hardly any sleep last three days so pretty shaky, woke up in middle of night with dry heaves, ya that's fun! but pledge to stay sober today. |

Just a little hello to Pebbles......hope you're okay sweetheart I know you were upset yesterday. We're here for you :grouphug: |
“If there's just one piece of advice I can give you, it’s this - When there’s something you really want, fight for it, don’t give up no matter how hopeless it seems. And when you’ve lost hope, ask yourself if 10 years from now, you’re gonna wish you gave it just one more shot. Because the best things in life, they don’t come free.” 6:15am in Alberta, today is going to be a darn good day not to drink! I'll have 24 more please and thanks... |
24 more clean and sober hours please.:thanks |
Be proud Joand. The path of all our new lives- sober is made up on the progress we take in every single- sometimes anguishing step. Today it took a herculean effort for me to get about 5 yards. No matter- progress is progress. |
