Thanks Dee and Venus.

Feeling a lot better now. Due to go for a run today so that'll cheer me up. I'll head out when the sun comes up and it's a bit warmer.

I'll ring the mental health centre tomorrow. Maybe a slight change in meds is in order, though I've only been on the higher lexapro dose for four weeks and it can take longer. I really need to get on top of my depression before rehab as its very demanding.

FF, it's high time you go to rehab, probably for few months at the very least for best chances of success. Kindly don't delay this any further.

End of Day 112 - Ran a 5k, had a good dinner and now off to bed.

Congratulations to everyone on their milestones. Good night from Seattle!

Thanks suze.hows the studying going ? Did you get your reading done?

Hope your meeting went well erratic.

Lovely weekend here weather wise. Been outside most of it doing stuff. Chopping wood atm 😂🤣

Hi all, Hi Mish, I like to stop in here although February is my class.
FF, I hope it's not too long before your rehab?
Samw hope you're able to cope with the work event. I always disliked such events, just not good around too many ppl and I had a "horrible boss"! I never embarrassed myself, but felt so stressed I'd go home and drink.
Good luck with your prep CS. Hi RAL, is it you chopping wood? Well done. I'd love to go to an axe throwing place. There's one in town bu don't know who'd want to go. Don't know a lot of ppl. There's also an escape room place which would freak me out. That and mazes. I had a panic attack in the Hampton court one. My husband managed to find the ladder to make an exit! Never again.

Posting for accountability. Today, I resolve not to drink.

Hey Erratic-
Funny you said this, I was just telling myself I need to push myself to get out more and engage with people face to face. I feel like I'm stuck in a loop of not doing anything social and I am working on changing that.

Happy Sunday everyone. I haven't been posting days much since my last fall off the sober bus, but today is day 15 for me--I'll probably post just "milestone" days going forward. I did realize since the beginning of this last sober try three months ago, I've only drank on a handful of days. I'll take that as progress, not beat myself up, and realize I'm on the right path as a non drinker now.

RAL 03-06-2022 07:20 AM

No axes Leshar. Just a log splitter machine 😃👍

Morning! 5 weeks today, feels good. I start out patient this Friday, so I feel like I'm on the right path. Off to get ready for work. Hope everyone had a good sober Sunday!

Morning dear BTG! :) :hug: ❤️

Hi guys, back to day 3. I am one step forward, two steps back these days. I was really dumb and went I to a gas station after being annoyed by the gas prices *rolling my eyes at myself*. I should have not gone in or I should have gotten a snack or milk. I will make a different plan and avoid the gas station for a while.

Staying sober now I can have 2 weeks on my Birthday, that is the short goal at the moment.

Thanks Suze :hug: ❤❤
