In a week I'll be sleeping soundly and waking up not covered in sweat. Although, if history repeats, then in a few days I'll be in the weird dream phase. That can be fun and terrifying. Ugh, marching on. I wish I was more positive today. It's still early. There is still time. Right now I just want to go back to bed.

Runner what part of Florida do you go down to? We have a place in Fort Myers. Not on the beach. Or otherwise the hurricane would have taken it out. We tried going last month, but had to return right home. Different story, and not a great one. I'm struggling with the idea of just selling it. Insurance and cost of living to maintain it, as to how much we use it, doesn't make financial sense. But I'm really sick of this winter weather in MIchigan. The sun is out today, which I should be happy about. I'm just not feeling it yet today.

Myley, just sending you some positive vibes.

Wishing everyone a good day. Thanks for sharing and posting. It makes it easier knowing there is others out there with the same goal. To get better and to be better versions of ourselves.
Happy Birthday GS

Good morning Tetrax and everyone else. Alcohol is poison. I am living for today and for an alcohol free day. I am an alcoholic, and I can’t drink like “normal” people. Today will be alcohol free, and that is a victory and a gift I will enjoy. Peace and love to everybody.

Good morning! Well done on all the milestones, folks! Each day is a gift of great promise. Sometimes it feels like I just want to complain about how hard the dang package is to unwrap! Working on it.

Today I'm grateful for sound sleep, good friends, growing children, chocolate cake, hard work, and a listening ear.

I dreamt last night that I won the publisher's clearinghouse sweepstakes, and my first thought, amidst the huge check, confetti, and roses was, "They had better not bring me any champagne!"

That’s pretty hilarious, TC! I really hope you win 🙌🏼 I need to start playing the lottery.

Congrats to all on deciding to be sober today, no matter what day it is. We can do this!

I woke up so tired today. I will have a busy day but I look forward to coming home to clean quiet place. Day 91.

I had a dream last night that i was in the middle of a huge party , all of my friends were there and they were drinking , they started offering me drinks and i panicked and started to think of ways to get out of there , that's when i woke up. I guess it's a good sign that even in my dreams i am starting to realize that booze is never the answer.
I also think that PAWS is similar to PTSD , at least that is how i feel it , anxiety and panic over little things sometimes and i can literally get shaky over little things even though i am 67 days AF today , but i guess it doesn't really matter that much what it is , staying sober and time are the only cure.

Relapsed after one month of sobriety, been on a three day alcohol binge now I am on Day 2 sobriety here we go! I am new to the community and have been struggling with sobriety mostly by myself for years now. Finally come to the realization that I need to be involved with others to get the most of out my recovery. It feels good to take the first step.
