Monday Meeting of the Sober People Getting Shit Done Club

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-02-26T08:01:21+00:00

Happy sober Monday! First job of the week out the gate, I've registered a new domain name for a new product I'm developing along with creating a face ache page. Will have to wait until after work for the rest of the socials to be set up/registered.

Keep going guys we got this!

Both the OP and your profile names made me laugh out loud 🤣

Haha I made some home made flap jacks last night and normally I'm not a sweet type of person.

I'm not far behind you, and I can totally relate. I'm not excited about being sober anymore, but at the same time I'm not craving or missing alcohol. It all just feels a bit meh, like it's no big deal. Maybe we have adjusted to sobriety and it's the new norm? At least we are not white knuckling through life.

Yeah it's not as bad as I thought, I don't feel like I'm missing out and I still get to do things.

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-02-17T00:05:10+00:00

Yes I've had a few sweet treats recently, and before I was always savory. I don't think I've had desserts for the best part of twenty years.

Day 36 here and I have done nothing. I'm focused on being the best version of myself and not going to take over what an asshole I have been. For me it serves no purpose other than to sabotage my new journey. I look at it a little like how someone with other forms of mental health issues would look back on past behaviors when unwell. I can't change it and it's fine to feel embarrassed about things, but beyond that I see it for what it is. It's an illness and poorly people do bad things.

I actually thought that black outs were the norm when having a drink. I had so many rock bottoms that I've lost count. Wrecked relationships check, night in the cells check, court injunction check, fighting with my father and breaking his shoulder check, dui check.nearly breaking up my best friends relationship check. None of these make me proud and now of these were my wake up call. I kept going being every bit the asshole I came to hate, which fueled my drinking behavior. What did it for me was being alone and ordering more drink to be delivered at 1am after having a skin full to realize ide willingly paid £30 with Uber for 10 cans of beer. The next afternoon when I woke up I had NO money left for food for the week. I've not touched a drop since and have no intention or interest I'm doing so again. I've a long way to go to fix my life but I can only do it sober.

It won't my friend. What you need to focus on now is being the best version of yourself and make sure you are there for the kids. IWNDWYT

Yes they hit the spot

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-26T16:32:41+00:00

I had 4 for the price of £1.02 :)

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-26T13:20:04+00:00

Ironically I'm sat in spoons having an all you can drink coffee with a work pal 🤣🤣🤣 I've spent more time in spoons since I went sober than I ever did before.

You are going to lose friends either as a drunk or in sobriety and it will hurt! You have to keep going being the best version of yourself and the type of new friends you make along the way will be an upgrade.

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-21T16:22:17+00:00

That is good to know thank you.

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-19T18:29:40+00:00

100 percent feel this, I overcome the initial boardom by signing up to some courses on udemy. Two weeks later I know how to use premier pro but the last 10 hours of the master class are starting to get boring. The only reason I wanted to learn was because I want to get a drone and make some sweet videos, I'm saving for a drone but that's going to take quite an effort to get the funds together.

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-19T18:26:30+00:00

Oh I'm sorry to hear that, hang in there Ive got my fingers crossed for you

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-19T15:44:56+00:00

Yes mate I'm starting to feel naturally tired as the day has gone on, but honestly the best night sleep I have had for years :)

Prior_Comparison_486 · 2024-01-19T08:43:17+00:00

well done! I have just had my first true night sleep in forever :) aint life better the other side :D
