short update

hi

sober time is now 1625 days, and I developed the routines to keep my mind from temptation of taking that drink that will send me back to hell.


My last post was more than one year ago. I lost my father last autumn and now, slowly, I realize how much I miss him. I still fail to take control over the family business, I am affraid, I don't have the courage and the mental strenght that my father had.

Also my current job is a major stress factor, as I am dealing with even more deadlines than I can handle, and it's getting me to almost 55 worked hours each week. I tried to quit out of frustration but then changed my mind - staying at home is dangerous, you know what I mean . In the end I got nothing : no income increase, not more free time for me. Next time I will find a new job, then quit for real.

One thing is clear, that life is not going to spare us, but better to be sober when facing it.

Reading SR forum is one routine that keeps me on track even in this situation.

I will never be able to thank this comunity enought, but I feel that I owe you every good moment in these 1625 days. We are leaving amazing times, a group of anonymous people, transforming their individual struggles into something so positive and so powerfull that can influence strangers at the other end of the world.

Thank you.
