I think you are kind--addiction is a problem you have, not who you are HAS

Morning HAS! I just wanted to pop in and congratulate you on getting your next job so fast! I know you don't seem too excited about it, but you need to give yourself some huge credit on being to go out there and get hired on the spot. That is so awesome! Hopefully you will come to like this job. If not, well, there are more out there.

How is your new routine going? I have something similar, except I'm starting at 5:30, not 5. Still early, especially when I'm not normally a morning person.

I hope you're doing okay, let us know how the new job goes

Thank you! I am starting soon. not feeling great today huge cravings and actually waiting for my husband to go out to start. of course I don't want to but my mind just went there.

He found out i left my old job because some people text me to said they will miss me. i am an idiot my devices are connected he saw it on the iPad.

he was really angry telling our marriage has been a lie and that i am a lier and a bad one since he always find out.

anyways he said i am sabotaging myself since this is the second job i quit in the past year. i quit two and was fired from one. he keeps going on abut me going back on medication. i just feel so low i just want the get drunk. i am finding very hard to function normally.

lets see what happens. thanks for your replies.

Its very important you stay strong HAS - if you go back to drinking you have no hope of changing any of the things that are upsetting you.

I was here a lot in early recovery. I read and posted and distracted myself. I give SR a huge part of the credit for my sobriety.

Morning HAS!

I just wanted to drop in and tell you I was thinking about you. I hope you're doing okay and staying strong. After reading what happened between you and your husband after he found out, it made me cringe. I know every marriage is different, but hopefully you can get to a point where neither of you will feel the need to hide anything between each other anymore. For now, you can't go backwards in time, so just stand up straight and move forward. Even if you hate this new job, give it your best self. You never know where things lead, sometimes the job sucks, but the networking contacts you make during it could lead to the perfect job in the future.

You need to stay strong. You can do this!

I know it has to be hard, but I think you have to first focus on yourself by taking one day at a time. One hour at a time if needed. Hang in there
