Class of March 2016 part 59
Checking in this afternoon. My IKEA visit was uneventful....meaning I didn’t buy anything....lol. Then we came home and took Charlie for a walk. Now just going to start dinner and have a quiet night. I’m making flax seed crusted chicken fingers...which sound questionable but are actually delicious. What’s everyone else up to tonight??
Shucks 'n be darned. I've had a pretty good day but tonight is not startin' off right. I wanted a frozen chicken pot pie for dinner but not one is the freezer! There's only two episodes of BBT!
Oh well. I've got a Salisbury steak TV dinner. And Everybody Loves Raymond is ok. So all is well in my world I guess!

I went to Walmart and got some A-1. But they didn't have PM. I know Amazon has it and I'll get it from them if I have too!
I could've sworn I had a pot pie in the freezer. I'll restock tomorrow. I'm really gettin' kinda' tired of 'em though. Been eatin' 'em a lot lately!
Having some Sleepytime tea & winding down for the evening....found something on Youtube: Music to "Cleanse self doubt, fear & sabotage/Reset the mind/Freedom from unconscious fear" ~ Got my name written all over it!
Back to the drawing board for me dear friends. Work stress did it this time. Not proud...I was doing so well. I've drunk enough over the past week to expect some withdrawals again. Just feeling defeated at the moment. :-(
I haven't got this right yet. But I'll never give up. I will succeed!!!
I don't know D. It all happened so quickly and I was like..I got this it's not going to be like all the other times. I did reach out to my dear friend Nic233 on SR but that was after I started drinking again. I tried at the beginning of the week to get an appointment at the doctors but they couldn't fit me in til next Tuesday. We only have one doctor in the town I live in. I just don't know what to do. I popped into SR to see what you guys were up to but was too ashamed to post. Every time I get a few months under my belt this happens and I go back to square 1. Looking at the next three months now makes me think whats the point of even trying if I keep falling off the wagon at that point. But I know there's no other way. I just have to keep trying. I just want to cry :-(
You're right BBG. It's all about adding to the recovery plan isn't it. I thought mine was rock solid. Boy was I wrong. xxx

You have shown you can be sober - now you just need to stay sober.
it's like you've taken off from Planet Addiction - now you need to achieve escape velocity
I think the really important thing there is to take drinking off the table as a viable option.
No matter what the reason is, there's always another way to deal with it without drinking. You have to find the courage to be uncomfortable for a little while until you find alternative strategies for coping with life, work, emotions or whatever it is
and..I know it's hard to reach out - but it's a skill we need to develop. The weekender thread is about that very subject right now - pop in and take a look if you haven't already
