Very stressed Very stressed today at work got very wound up by bad family relationships. On the the plus side I am 3 weeks sober today and have not resorted to drinking alcohol. A stressful day would always in the past lead to drinking. This would make a stressful day into a bad night and a terrible morning and even more stress. Thank god I no longer use stress as an excuse to drink. |
I'm glad you got through that. Stress is easier to deal with in recovery. :) |
Glad you haven’t had a drink. Alcohol really doesn’t help, though it seems as though it will. Hang in there. |
There are some good ideas about dealing with stress here Stable :) https://www.soberrecovery.com/forums...44-stress.html D |
I think of the picture of the cat hanging from a stick and the caption says "Hang in there" today is an accomplishment congrats! |
I totally feel you! Good for you in facing reality head on :) |
Great job Stable! |
I am bumping up against plenty of stress at work now, too, so I feel with you. I tell myself that this wave will soon be past, and things will go as well as I can try to make them happen. Not drinking definitely helps. |
Hows it going Stable? D |
It’s going good. That was a horrible intense burst of stress yesterday but I did not drink and boy am I grateful for that today. |
Sounds like you passed a major test with flying colors. |
