Talking Great sober day 3!!!!!!

Im very proud of myself...I felt like ME today! Ive been busy all day, rode lots of horses, gave 3 riding lessons, did some self care, didn't miss alcohol in the evening, and was emotionally stable. The horses are so therapeutic for me, but for so long now ive been so drunk, hungover and depressed ive done the minimum with them, and they miss me. Getting back into my job as a professional trainer makes me feel happy too.....though im getting back at it slowly, and not taking any horses with serious behaviour issues at the moment (that is what i specialize in).

Usually day 3 is a bad one for me. I also had half the amount of benzodiazepines that I have had in the past two days. I will NOT stay on those long term. I REFUSE to replace one problem for another.

On a side note, things with the bf are settling and getting back to normal. More harmony in the home....finally

I know I still have a long way to go but Im on my way!

I still need to do more journaling, meditating and exercising though. Routine, balance, structure....but keep it simple.
