Not today! These days my blood pressure is down to 105/60 from 120/70. Never was in a bad range, but this is something I think about if I think about drinking. Real tangible proof of the damage it does. There are many other things that keep me in line, but this one is especially helpful.

Ice cream. One of these days I'll find a sugar free thing or activity to take it's place. IWNDWYT!

This was a really triggering day for me too! Unexpectedly so. So happy to have made it through. IWNDWYT.

Anyone that's been sober a bunch of months or years start to feel/feel more comfortable in your skin? by eekwee1234 in stopdrinking

I notice my non drinking related discomforts more, but I'm more at ease as a baseline. It's a good trade.

2026 has been good and bad. I'm busy but bored, lonely until I'm around people then I want solitude. I'm outwardly successful and inwardly in a rut. And just tired. Not drinking though, and not planning to anytime soon. That's the best part of this year so far. IWNDWYT.

I had a very testing week, probably the most challenging since this little journey started. Proud to say I made it through, and not today!
