Day 30 something.

Well I am still hanging in there. Not going to lie and say that I haven't had the urge to run get a bottle and have a drink.They are few and far between though. I take a deep breath and play in my head exactly what the outcome would be. I have an appointment with a counselor. They called and said they had to reschedule me so it is going to be later than I expected. Getting a bit anxious about that. I have decided not to focus on being sober but focus on changing my thoughts and patterns. If that makes sense. I read here every day. I am pulling for you all. Wishing you peace, love and strength.

Thoughts and patterns.

You bet. I did the same thing. And try not to stress over the delay. The counselors will be a big help. Mine were. But unltimately, you're the one who's going to keep yourself sober and get yourself better.

Congratulations on 30!

Alright congrats on 30

Doing great, of course you will feel times like drinking again. Thats what you build your foundation and fill your tool box for.

Keep going forward.

I like your plan sobered.focus on what you want and not want you don't want.

I admire your efforts.

I have learned a thing or two about desire over the last few days myself.

I see my counselor tonight. I missed last thursday due to a sever relapse.

I know what it means to build up the courage and plan what you want to share and then have that changed. Hold on to that energy and stay positive with it.

A delay in seeing this person is not a failure of any kind so do not treat it like one.

Day 4 here. I look for your posts to see how you are doing. Thanks for checking in.

Ken
