Britbird80

Thats brilliant Willow! Over halfway to triple digits, Do you find the days are flying by now? I just love waking up feeling so much more refreshed and definitely less anxious in general than before.

I wanted to pop in and say hi and I recognise a few of you from my time here. Well done on all your achievements!

Hello to those I’ve not met yet. Lovely to meet you!

Im Jo and I’m from the uk. I’m 309 days sober and just want to say you can all do this! We are always in this together xx

Scott2295

Hi Jo - Thanks for stopping by. Congrats on 309 days!

Willow00

And you too Chancellor! Congratulations on passing 50 yourself

Willow00

Hi Jo well done on 309 days! That’s fantastic stuff

Britbird, I don’t know that the days feel like they’re flying by as they’re happening, but they sure do seem to be accumulating quickly! And I’m enjoying the clear head that comes with being sober

Jo43

Thanks all. How is everyone today?? Xx

Scott2295

Morning Jo. I’m doing well. We have a snowstorm today so likely we’re just going to hang out at home. It doesn’t look as big as forecast. I’m really ready for spring.

I’m rereading “Under the Influence”. If any wants a better understanding of what alcohol does to your body, this is the book. It’s scary the damage alcohol does at the cellular level.

Jo43

I’ve not seen that book so I will look it up. Yes I completely agree on how shocking it is when you read what alcohol does to the body!!!

Hey Guys!

Glad to see everyone still on track! Day 81 here and I’m starting to feel that around 3 months change, happened last time as well, it’s like body and mind get in perfect sync for me.

I’ve been reading a lot of philosophy lately, finding some big answers there, including many about addiction. Some of that stuff was written 2.5 thousand years ago, it’s amazing how current it still is.

Have a nice week everyone!

Mr P

Willow00

Scott I’ll look that book up too, I’m an avid reader and I need something new to read.

MrP which philosopher are your reading? Or several?

Em are you ok? Haven’t heard from you for a few days, hope you’re ok

It’s only 6.30am and I’m already exhausted, I didn’t have a great sleep. I’m off to get some coffee and see if I can wake up properly.

Enemdio

Hi Guys, all good here - been really busy and exercising lots - I get so tired I can't type. I just look forward to going to bed! Hope everyone's going well it certainly sounds like it.

Mr. P and Willow - I just finished 'Masters of Greek thought' which was quite a long book about the 3 greats - Socrates, Plato & Aristotle - can highly recommend it. Now I'm wading through 'A history of Western philosophy' by Russell - heavy stuff, but good. Will take weeks. I found the 5 meditations by Marcus Aurelius to be sound advice, but I was disappointed in Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, which I feel can be summed up in its entirety as 'Moderation in all things'

I really like Greek philosophy, but it takes up so much of my bandwidth that I can't really do anything else!

Sleep tight all.

Scott2295

‘Em - that’s some heavy reading. I’ll check into the Masters of Greek thought though. That sounds interesting.

Day 25 tomorrow. Been staying busy but trying hard not to over do it like i normally do. Still feeling A-mazing after my surgery 3 weeks ago- thank God for western medicine!

Jo43

Wow to the Greek books!! My grandad was awesome on this subject! He just loved it all and history bless him. I miss his kind loving soul xx

Anxious congrats on day 25! Your doing amazingly!!! Xx

Willow00
