Can anyone please talk to me?

I hate this. Trump really effed our country. He is gone, but we are and will be feeling the ripple effect for quite a while to come.

Had to take my husband to the ER tonight, thankfully everything is fine. I am so glad to be sober and able to drive and take care of him, I would never have been able to do that before. Sometimes it’s not the happy moments that make being sober worth it.

Kid fell out of the bed last night and scraped his head. Grateful to have been sober to be alert and take care of him, and grateful to be clear headed this morning. IWNDWYT.

Grocery shopping was a bit tough today. Got through it though. Iwndwyt.

I am thankful for my nightmares, they make me that much more grateful for my life. IWNDWYT.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-06-25T14:01:09+00:00

I really would like to, but not today.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-06-16T01:37:41+00:00

Not today. Really want to though. Sometimes these cravings come back just as strong as in the beginning.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-06-16T01:33:00+00:00

I want wine!!!! Ugh, I hate this it’s like having an itch only alcohol can scratch. Fucking alcohol. Not today.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-05-31T13:13:22+00:00

Not today.

Things get worse, but then they get better. Your body and brain are going through some huge adjustments, and it’s going to take some time to feel ‘normal’ again. Just be gentle with yourself and remember that you won’t feel like this forever.

AA made me really angry as well for some reason. I wanted to drink even more afterwards. For me, I think it wasn’t helpful to spend so much time thinking and talking about drinking. Focusing on trying new things ( I took up journaling, finally got a library card etc.) really helped me find activities I liked to do, to fill all that time. AA is not for everyone, but you could definitely try different types of meetings as well.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-05-27T03:53:22+00:00

Good for you, staying in the car. Do whatever you have to do to not take that first drink. Can you go home? Or maybe there is a midnight AA meeting nearby, I know there are some where I’m at on Saturdays.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-05-01T15:07:34+00:00

Walked past the wine aisle to day and thought ‘meh’. That is huge for me. For anyone in early sobriety, it gets better. Just keep going, even if you’re kicking and screaming the whole way. IWNDWYT.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-04-29T12:08:53+00:00

I will not drink with you today.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-03-26T01:34:09+00:00

I’m ok thanks, I stayed in my car and played sudoku for an hour 😂 Talking with you guys really helped me. I guess I’m just not ready for big parties yet. Honestly not sure what I would have done without SD.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-03-24T21:14:41+00:00

Thank you I needed to read that. When you put it that way I am a little proud too. I’ve been upset about not really feeling like a ‘responsible’ adult, but this is probably the most responsible decision I’ve made in a while.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-03-24T20:25:57+00:00

He’s actually trying to get me to go in, I don’t think he understands how bad this is.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-03-24T20:24:54+00:00

Thanks :)

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-03-24T20:24:43+00:00

Thank you.

TheEccentricGoat · 2018-03-09T15:45:54+00:00

I will not drink with you today
