Feeling good

I'm now into week 3 of getting back on track, week 2 of new meds. I don't want to temp fate, but I'm feeling really good. Everything is slotting into place nicely.
It's been good to be off work, I've been pottering about, eating well, falling asleep a lot, but it's all part of the process. I have zero negative thoughts, I haven't the shouting in my head, I've been really calm, no pacing. I no longer dread waking up the next day with thoughts of how my moods going to be. I'm definitely levelling out. I feel like I'm the person I should be. I was concerned about new meds in case they left me feeling nothing or being a zombie. I have no worries now, I'm still able to laugh and cry and feel. Best of all I haven't the need to get smashed to block out my crazy thinking.
In fact I really do believe that I'm gonna win this battle. Time will tell, but for now I'm good,, content, strong and positive.
Much love as always
Doris xx

Morning hope your head is in for a nice cruise today.
Steady away, no bother, no fuss.

My ex is slowing things down and being difficult, name calling, screaming etc.
Expecting me to pay all the bills while she sits on her bum taking her time while I organise everything else around her.
She can’t go back to mediation till September because, because, because.
General procrastination.

Good thing is that my place in the new pad is secure and I can move in when things are sorted. Rome wasn’t built in a day.
None of the progress I have made would have been possible if I was still drinking.
Plus I can give myself a self improvement point for not being scared of her anymore.

Here’s to knocking on steady.

Good for you snowy, it's amazing what we can achieve sober/straight..
I'm pleased things are working out and you have a place sorted out. Break ups are tough I know, but the dust soon settles mate.
Onwards an upwards buttercup lol 😃 have a good day.x
