That's your priority, Neoo.

Trust me, the longer you're sober the more your emotions settle down.

Stay the course.

That aside I second the tea idea.....herbal peppermint and liquorice for me tonight mmmmmmm
I second the tea idea...... for me either Tazo Decaf Lotus Blossom or Peach Chamomile tea.

I second Jo's thoughts on your anti-depressant.
Have you tried any meditation for your anxiety?

24 more for this tired old man alcoholic.


What's Good for Me?


When we are soul searching, be it for the smaller or larger decisions we face during the day, we can learn to ask, is this good for me?... Is this what I really want?... Is this what I need?...Does this direction feel right for me?...or am I succumbing to the control and influence that I sometimes allow others to have over me?

It is not unhealthy selfishness to question if something is good for us. That is an old way of thinking. To ask if something is good for us is a healthy behavior, not to be ashamed of, and will probably work out in the other person's best interests too.

We shall not wander down a selfish path of self-indulgence by asking if a thing is good for us. We shall not stray from God's intended plan, God's highest good, by asking if a thing is good for us. By asking ourselves this simple question, we participate in directing our life toward the highest good and purpose; we own our power to hold ourselves in self-esteem.

Today, I will begin acting in my best interests. I will do this with the understanding that, on occasion, my choices will not please everyone around me. I will do this with the understanding that asking if a thing is good for me will ultimately help me take true responsibility for my life and my choices.
Hi Eric. Thank you.

If you're old what am I? lol

Completely new territory for me and especially so when my default go to would have taken me back to my pity party of over a month ago. Well, here I am off to snooze land a bit emotional still, but no alcohol
and that has got to count as a good day, for that I am so grateful.

So glad to be part of this fabulous posse, Thank you all for being here. I hope you have/have had a good, peaceful day. Much Love to you all, SP xxx
...................... a very GOOD day! Sweet Sober Dreams Sweetpeacan.

Back for another 24 hours of sanity
I didn't find a pair of running shoes that I liked, but I did buy a hoodie! And I bought a new recliner. Just got to wait a few days to receive it.

8:29 in California and checking in for another 24. I was very excited this afternoon when I realized it was Thursday, for some reason I thought it was Wednesday all day.

Hope everyone is doing well. Congrats to our Milestoners!
