Fighting thru day 3. Cold turkey
Here I am again pushing thru day 3. Came back to work today, stopped myself once already from cashing my check to go get high. I know I should be better if I can just make it thru the day tpday. By tonight day 4 will have begun and I hope to sleep okay.
If I work the morning shift on Saturday I am going to a meeting. I think either way I really need to give it a go. And I need to get back to surfing, was a bad stretch without waves and poor weather during my last run. Lacking energy and motivation but better today bit by bit

Welcome back Surf 
you know how they say insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results?...
Do something different this time, man - not just talk about but follow through and keep it up - you'll be glad you did.

But ya know what forget insanity. I am trying and gonna keep trying til I get it right. I got here to post and pocket recovery. Yeah gonna likely do the whole 12 step thing. Although I am not spiritual anymore. Spent years exhausting that and the rabbit hole begins and ends with you.

Coming here to SR showed me that people could be clean and sober and sill happy.
I got really involved in the community here.
It made a difference when I was tempted cos, apart from not wanting to go back to thatold drinking BS, I didn't want to let anyone here down either.

I'll stay posting here as it comes, I wish it was a more active community. Pocket rehab app is also where I am postong. Multiple times a day. Good support and inspiration, like what I find here. Anyway's I also know I need to make sobriety priority 1, so like for today I am off to a meeting right now, otherwise I'd be surfing, and that's big for me
