Thnx

Btw, there was a major accident by my home. The accident caused a gas leak and many had to evacuate the building ...truly reminds me how fleeting life is.

Hope you had a great weekend

Hi 👋 Sky. I'm alright. Therapy was kind of odd today. Went in thinking I'd be talking about one thing (that was kind of big and scary) but ended up talking about something else. Not a wasted session but not what I expected at all. The time also went so fast. I'm seeing him again next Thursday morning - maybe we'll talk about the other stuff then.

Sorry to hijack your thread😌 I'm glad you got some time away. I actually went to a nice park with my family this weekend. The gas leak sounds frightening. Our house is way old and I'm always worried 😩 it's going to burn down!

18 days - nice😀

Hi. Glad to hear from you. I def understand. Sometimes I plan out what I want to talk about in my sessions (I did that a lot in the beginning sessions) but then I realized that wasn't good for my anxiety so I just tried to let my sessions flow on their own.

No worries, hijack away! Awesome, glad to hear you like the park you went to. Family time is always a nice break away from stress (sometimes haha)

I am trying to go to a haunted house attraction this upcoming weekend. Hopefully, it works out because everyone I invited is too scared haha.

Let me know how your next session goes.

Thanks for the comments about therapy. I actually offloaded a little emotional baggage this evening so I'm genuinely happy. It's been a while😁

Oh, you're doing great dealing with the meth cravings. I've got a lot of respect for what you're doing man.

Enjiy your day Sky!

Hi Sky

I'm a boig one for plans - maybe you need more support, or to use the support you have more effectively?

Maybe you need to make more changes in your life to better reflect your desire to get sober?

What do you think?

This is a pretty good intro to recovery plans

Hi Sky,

I just saw your message. I'm really sorry to hear you used again but it's a positive step that you decided to post again.
