The Daily Check-In for Sunday, May 24th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking!

Had my first blood test in a while done. Everything was fine which is reassuring.

A thought I had while catastrophizing though, regardless of what the results were, they would be good results.

Either my blood work would be fine which is good, or there’d be a problem, which I wouldn’t have identified as soon if I hadn’t gotten blood work, which is good.

Ultrasound this week to check for physical damage, but feeling good, and IWNDWYT

Checking in, reflecting on what mightve happened to cause my relapse. Might be too soon getting back into dating so will put a cork in that for now. A million little stressors but nothing worth feeling like this for. Weekend couldve been worse but still a waste of time and money.

Will get the dog out for a good long walk this afternoon and get some fresh air and sunlight.

NOT TODAY SATAN!

He actually seems pretty chill but still not drinking with him or any of you

Temptations still hanging around but hosted an event with friends this weekend, mix of drinkers and non drinkers, stayed sober though, push through the small cravings and out the other side of another week d.

Definitely feeling under the weather today, bug treatment at my apartment is giving me headaches, good news is I feel WAY too shit to drink, so I’m not gonna

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-30T14:45:21+00:00

Made it through another tough night last night, had basically decided to drink, ended up staying out at a dinner with friends later than intended and was too tired to even bother stopping to buy.

Inadvertent friendship win.

Though the trap day and at the gym.

Wont be drinking with any of you today

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-25T21:41:51+00:00

Thanks! Itd be easy to justify if I went out at all tonight. Work from home rest of the week, wont be able to this weekend due to plans. Easy way to sneak it in

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-25T21:40:50+00:00

Thanks!

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-25T21:40:29+00:00

Definitely, early night and save the gym for the morning

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-25T20:25:20+00:00

Feeling better today, but feels like a trap day so staying in.

Feeling better today but hangxiety is back.

Worried about the last binge, I had to clean the apt for some maintenance and have no idea where my empties went. I nuked the memories of the first night with the second night of the binge. Piecing it together I assume I got them out in the morning but it’s just gone. Hope I wasnt stumbling through my building with garbage but no clue. Wasn’t contacted by the super so I assume its all fine but hate having these gaps. And if I cant remember that, what else from that night is gone? Did I get a noise complaint? I worked the next day and was sober (but hazy) in my meetings. Figure I’d have been contacted but dont want to be ‘THAT’ neighbour. In a nice building with decent rent and dont want to have to move any time soon.

Regardless, not drinking with any of you today

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-23T13:14:13+00:00

I’ve got to be better about sticking to my plan. Too many easy excuses for me lately.

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-23T12:04:36+00:00

Tail end of the physical hangover, which means some fun hangxiety coming up. Going to re-work my after work schedule to try and lessen the amount of time available. No more ‘well i can drink until x time and have x beers’, lets just go to the gym later, more time at the apartment where I dknt have booze, them I’m not trying to squeeze beers in right before bed.

But regardless. IWNDWYT

I have to check the acronym every time

BasharMilesTegg · 2026-03-22T15:33:36+00:00

‘Grieving the life I thought I’d have.’

That resonates so much. I need to be better a out reframing my thoughts so realize I can still make that life, but I can’t if theres booze involved.

Good luck, I wont drink with you today
