After 20 days on in January, then 11 days off/on I'm back at seven days on! Honestly today is the first day I feel hopeful! The last 4 or so days I have been depressed, resentful, and just a flat out b***h to those closest to me while putting on a happy face for the rest of the world. It may have been hormonal, but who knows! Today I woke up happy, rested, and optimistic! I'm starting to learn that my emotions change quickly and unpredictably and that's when I get into trouble. I set up a little "sobriety station" at a card table that I brought in from the garage, and FINALLY have a set appointment with a mental health therapist this week! I've been exercising regularly, and trying to eat healthfully, but that darn chocolate just seems to find its way! Lol The sun is shining today!! And I am smiling and sober, so yay for that! :-)

Thanks all! Some days it seems so simple. Other days it's the biggest battle. But I guess you all know that! Lol
