Goodnight calmself. Congrats on your 140 days.
I get ativan shortly. I think the stuff is making me miserable. I feel like im only happy for the couple of hours after taking. I should really only use it when I really need it. But you hear so many nightmare stories about bemzo wd.
Going to get my second dose this morning so that's good. It'll probably be the one good thing I do today.

Good morning all. Day 13 here. Well the norm is starting to happen again, but I have quite a bit of time to figure it out. The norm is that I'm starting to feel pretty good and I start looking for things in the future where I will probably drink. I've already put one to rest by changing the activity. The other is more difficult, but I have 5 weeks to figure it out.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Good morning everyone (in the western hemisphere!) Although it has to be said I am SO not a morning person. It's hard to be a night owl type in this society we live in. Makes it harder to find a way to fit in, somehow. But sober I'm sure I can, etc.

I have a work trip this week so I am taking CS's advice to heart.

Good morning all.
Being sober is turning me into an early morning person, weird, but I like it--Tetrax's post made me realize it.
I leave for my trip this week, I'm very stressed but I will stick close to SR. I am sure I will not drink, but I also want to be on guard, if that makes sense.
I am already playing the tape to the end, but looking at the better alternate ending of me being in the gym early morning and being ready and refreshed for the day while others are hungover and suffering(not that I wish that on them, but history has shown that's usually what happens, I know as I used to be one of them.)
FF--fantastic on the 2nd vaxx
anxiousrock--hello and welcome
Erratic--hope today is better!
Have a great day everyone!

Good morning to everyone. The reason I think this time I can stop drinking is I have hootenanny all the alcohol out of the house. I will be going home a new route that doesn’t pass a liquor store. I realize that drinking just complicates everything so much. I keep coming back to the word “exhausting” - physically mentally, and emotionally. I just feel like I’m “done.”

Good morning SR
Erratic, I have been dealing with a lot of negative feelings, especially anger and paranoia this past week. Keep up the good fight!
Welcome AR - I hope you are feeling better today.
I went to the gym for the first time in months, needless to say, my body feels like I got ran over. Going to work on gratitude today, as yesterday I was highly irritable and discontent.
I attended an in-person meeting yesterday as well. I hadn't been to one in over a year; but lately I've been experiencing Zoom fatigue.
Anyway, Day 8, hope everyone has a good and sober day.

Just back from the store. Normally I'd be too anxious to go to the store at 4pm, especially since I'm banned from the nearest one. So small progress anxiety wise.
Looking forward to sleep tonight. The vaccine stressed me out which may sound silly. It's just the waiting around listening to people talk, imagining they're talking about me. Fortunately no side effects so far from the shot. Good to be fully vaxxed. I'll get the booster in three months? I think.
Today was a beautiful day weatherwise but back to rain and clouds later.
A huge chunk of my tooth fell out today when I was chewing nicotine gum. Between depression and alcoholism, my oral hygiene isn't great. Pepsi doesn't help. But it's not the end of the world. I'll make a dentist appt tomorrow and a GP appt because I need to get some bloods done for the dentist. Will ask the GP for a letter saying I've been referred to rehab. Might help in court.

Sirry to read that citrus but you are back here posting.
It's crazy how childrens sports seem to revolve round alcohol. I know you have to take your boys to games but is maybe taking a step back in the social side possible?

venuscat - I just adore you. Hope you are well!
Citrus - I admire your honesty and fortitude.. I would never be able to do so many activities with my children when I was in my active drinking, I just chose to lay in bed any chance I could. You can do this.
Sam, ST, Bob - I'm in the same boat, I don't ever want to drink again. Too many wasted years living in the darkness!
Freedom - you seem to be getting a lot done for yourself. Keep up the great work!
Hey RAL, how's it going for you today?
Love and Peace to You!
