I think you have a lot on your mind.....and it is stressful....I'm sorry about the fight with your mum :(.....sitting down and having a big talk with your husband will help.....he may understand better now that he has thought about it a bit more..... We are human and we make mistakes......but we keep going.....together. :hug: ♥ ****. I did drink it, but I stopped and dont plan on anymore. I called her up and we talked and worked it out. ****. Now I have to start day 1 again, I almost feel like going all out, since I have to start again anyway....but I wont. I can't believe how fast my emotions flared up and went to drinking. Its like my go-to. |
Nope.....this is OK right now.....but it won't be if you keep drinking. It will be way worse.....all-out is behind us now love....I know if I start drinking I am in HUGE trouble.....no off switch. I had a ton of day 1s.....lots of us did.....it is all practice for getting it right.....how can we learn without mistakes? :hug: ♥♥ |

Thanks V Good night all my SR buddies near and far(if it’s night for you) 20:35 in northern Illinois. A cold 58°F, drizzly. I ate about 4 cups of goldfish crackers 😳 ( after dinner of course) That’s about the worst thing I did today . Thank goodness Please, another smooth 24. How about another 240 years? Yes? ( my stupid AV doesn’t know time, it just said ‘yes’ to 240 years!) 😂😂 Try it!! Thank you!!! Free |
Please stop now, YCDT2. Your days will quickly build again. Going all out (even one more) puts you at serious risk. Please don’t go there. |

Thanks Kris47 I like reading your posts—- Cheers!!🥤🧘🏼 Free |
I just want to cry. I feel like I lost control of myself out of anger and now I am coming back to reality and I almost lost it completely. I feel guilty for what I did, but I almost went way too far and was able to stop myself. I feel like I am learning to deal with my own brain all over again. |

Thank you Plenny, suze and Leigh. I do work at my sponsor's business part time and my old boss at the hospital said absolutely come back. I haven't done any surgical teching since the horrible hangovers and daily withdrawals so I'm looking forward to it. If and probably when i go back, I will feel more confident, not be hiding my hangover, no longer have uncontrollable shakes and hopefully anxiety will be much less or maybe gone altogether. Plus I will enjoy being back to earning more money that isn't wasted on drugs and alcohol. I know I am capable. Today was bearable, but tomorrow I am the only one scheduled for 15+. 3 more days and then I am done with this job and off to see the Pacific Ocean for the first time! Already scouted out a meeting for the 2nd day there. So excited. Also today is 100 days! Congrats snuf, rar and everyone, especially to those of us who had hard days and stayed strong. Much love <3 CONGRATS on 100 Days! |
Thank you guys for being here. I came here because I knew you guys would talk me out of the bad decision. I just feel really down right now. I wish I could un-drink that stupid little champagne bottle. I didnt even taste it in my stupid rage thing. |

Hi All, I'm pooped. Went to my dentist and he looked me over and told me I had traumatic facial bruising from my oral surgery ( performed on Saturday). The dentist who did the work on me is a contractor. Very brusque, boom & boom, lots of pressure on my jaw! 3 shots, I still have a lump on my jaw where one of the shots were given. Anyway, my kind regular dentist prescribed me antibiotics. And suggested taking them with Ibuprofen. I'm just about to do that, hopefully a better. Nights sleep tonight. Oh yes! Checking in for my next 24 too! Night all, :grouphug: Bobbi |

I approached sobriety differently in January of 2016 than I had in the past. Previously, I was laser focused on sobriety, and so many if my thoughts were about not drinking. However, I never really did anything to make it stick in the past. I flipped and focused on recovery and being healthy physically, and emotionally, and it really made a difference. I fell back in love with exercising, I was always an avid reader, it when drinking I often lost track, and found myself forgetting what I'd read, now I'm like a sponge again. I also have been more present in every area of my life, and mindfulness has been the thing that has helped me with that. I remember when I was drinking I was always going to do "that." Now that I'm sober, I do. :) |

You are, YCDT; your brain is rewiring itself. Forgive yourself and be patient with yourself. |

I am having one of those why am I awake at 1:45 in the morning moments so I decided to check in here to humbly request another 24 please. Sometimes these nights when I wake way too early have led to drinking so I will check in again at the witching hour. |

9:13am. Day 11. Knowing there is alcohol in the house got to me a bit yesterday. I did not want to drink it, but I wanted to pour myself a stash in case I wanted it at later date. I physically made the walk to get it a few times and then argued my AV away. I don't need it. |

It's amazing to me that at 13 months sober it is so simple for me to just commit to abstaining from alcohol but I can't string together more than 3 days without binge eating. How I pine to get to the place where I can easily offer my 24 hours of abstinence from the hell that is food addiction. God help me, I can't do this on my own. |

Im in for another 24. Xx |
