Pleased today is coming to a close, I've struggled today, just felt lonely and the wish that i was in a relationship has made me irritable and unsettled. Looking forward to a better tomorrow |
Ah sorry to hear that Tink. At least today is over. Do you find you feel the same every day or do you go up and down? I know I do, massively. Im winding down, bed quite early I guess. I feel a bit anxious but it's improved most of the time last two days |
Massively up and down aswell Be. Yeah im heading to bed too hopefully i will wake up with a fresh outlook. |

I've reached 30 days today. Not much going on, just staying home and taking it one day at a time. Got outside Saturday for a 3 mile hike. Also acknowledging that I should post more, but often I just don't have anything to post about....life is a bit boring with all the stay home stuff going on. Happy to be sober and working through each day as I am able. |
Yay you!!! That is WONDERFUL love!!! :) :hug: s xx ❤️❤️❤️ |
Congratulations on 30 days otterisland :) D |
Thanks Venuscat and Dee!! |
Well done Otter, 30 days is great going. Ive woken up early. Yesterday I painted a room and my daughter picked up a photo album I'd moved. Looking at it with her was moving. But most astonishing was me recognising when things 'started going wrong'. I'd say I started losing the thread about 2009-2011. I'd been a heavy drinker before that, but depression, aggression and unpredictability at home, not remembering stuff - that seemed to really kick in at that time. I also struggle to remember large swathes of time since then. I mentioned this is passing to my wife who corrected me and remembers my first deep 'low' was in 2004. Every day I'm discovering more. This morning I'm completely understanding of why my wife's had enough...at least 16 years of caring for a depressed, drunk, selfish, aggressive and ungrateful man. She's a saint. I'm not beating myself over that, just sitting here letting it be. This recovery is not about drinking, it's about a whole life change. The most important part of which is not drinking to allow the change to happen. |
I get welfare today. I'm not going to collect it for a few days because my AV will go nuts if I have money and I don't really need it yet. Have a psychiatrist phone appt Thursday. Going to ask about antabuse and naltrexone. Think one of them could be helpful |
Morning everyone well i made day 30. Feeling better than yesterday, going to try have more productive day, go for nice walk and get some housework done. Also eat healthier again. |
Congrats on day 30 |
Congrats on 30 Tink :) |

Yeah I normally get asked if I've been drinking so will be nice to say I'm five weeks sober |
