Couldn't agree more with Bil and Billy. 
Not a regression at all.....just hot nights. And maybe you have a cold or something? Or maybe you ate chilli for dinner?
As for the dreams.....I look at them as a huge positive.
You are sober and you have chosen this life ongoing, and now your subconscious is processing it.

Quick check in before bed, hope everyone is well.
I agree not regression at all just the ups and downs and process of change.
Have fun camping Be, i love camping, one of the things i am looking forward to doing again, unfortunately don't have a garden suitable to camp in.

I have to admit that I am not getting much out of SR in the last few weeks. There is hardly anyone on in the evening in the US, and very few posts. I’m not into the chat thing at all, because that has never been my thing. I’m not at all worried about sobriety because I am in a really good place. It’s just that when I was on SR 5-6 years ago there seemed to be a lot more people in my “home room”, and more activity in general. I’m sure social media wasn’t as popular 5-6 years ago so there must be more competition.

Morning all
I agree Bilr, there is not as much traffic on here as there used to be, I also think the technical problems a few weeks back may have added to that. I think I use the site to journal, and also for the mutual support in this group. I also post on some newcomers threads as the main thing I get from SR is HOPE, so when people seem hopeless I offer my experience of repeated failure but this time it being very different.
Slept ok but up early, the forecast is very un-British as we've got a week of sun forecast! Love it, I only wish I could get to a beach for the week

Good morning, a bright and sunny day here with milder temperatures than usual. I had a better nights sleep than usual other than one of my dogs waking me up to go outside at 1:00 a.m. I don’t use the site as much as I should but I’m just not a very social person who talks to a multitude of people.

How funny is this weather? So so hot my plants all got burnt yesterday, and back to more normal temps today. Thank you God. I was pretty miserable to have 90+ in May.
I slept really badly.....I was boiling even with the air con running. And I made us stay up too late so both my husband and I are tired today. Definitely an early night in store. s xxx

Hi all had a really down day today, thinking alot about my parents and my childhood and up bringing. And the way they have treated me as a adult. Just feel very resentful and down. Want to curl up and cry. Maybe just pmt.

Oh yes, PMT is awful. I was like that every month. s
Maybe have a nice bath? It always helped me at this stage....and I am sorry for all of the traumatic memories.
Family stuff is hard. s ❤️

Hi Tink,
I find that the longer I am sober the more I remember things from the past, and some were cringeworthy. I guess all of these got suppressed/drowned out by drinking. I think it is just normal for things to come flooding back now, but it is better to be sober and deal with them.

Hi Tink, sorry to hear that. I think you've got every right to be angry and hurt, and no alcohol to blunt that.
Hope you have a relaxing evening and find a way through. It really is the best weather this evening, so calm and serene, if you can get out for a few minutes maybe that will help?

Thanks everyone. Going to try get some sleep and will feel better tomorrow. Maybe if i hadn't drank for so long to cope with life i would of dealt with all of these feelings b4 now. I'm on waiting list for a type of cbt so hopefully that will help too. I just hate days like this where i feel trapped in my own head.
