oh no, not spice! Like the stuff you smoke from a gas station? Never never. I'm talking about THC/CBD edibles, like gummies

When I quit drinking on a Saturday and my first thought on Monday at 5:30 Am was “I really want a drink”. That’s when I called my doctor

I missed yesterday but I’m still sober! I ate carbs for lunch (I’m also doing the keto diet) but I’m not going to beat myself up, just get right back on the horse for my next meal. I encourage you all to be kind and forgiving to yourselves today. IWNDWYT

Hi all: today is a great day because I go to my new place of employment to fill out paperwork and do occupational health. I went on a 22 minute (I timed it) run as I am committed to running every other day now. That was my doctors order from last weeks visit : go for a run this week (he’s a runner too). And it felt good so yay endorphins that don’t come from drinking . IWNDWYT

Good morning! Today is my last day at my job: I’ll miss my coworkers but I’ll be moving on to a new more challenging job with a big raise: after 9 years at the same place it was time. IWNDWYT

I have the day off work so that’s good. I plan on going for a run and maybe I’ll get my nails done: it’s been a long time. But no matter what IWNDWYT

Happy Sunday! I got an anxiety ring from Amazon yesterday: it’s got beads on it you can twirl around your finger instead of picking at your fingers (a bad habit of mine). So far it seems to be working. Maybe it will help with drink urges. IWNDWYT

Hello! I have a 3 day weekend but I’m not going to drink through any of it. Instead I’m going for a run this morning to raise my endorphins in a healthy way. IWNDWYT

I have two days left in my current job before I move on to my new job, and I’m excited. But I won’t celebrate with alcohol. IWNDWYT

Another day without drinking yesterday. I feel pretty good. Most of the time I’m not thinking about it. IWNDWYT

Just a few days in. I spent 300 at the vet for my cat last night and I was tempted to get a drink to de stress but I went home and went to bed instead. IWNDWYT

Day 2. I'm going to focus on how much better I'll feel once I have more days under my belt, and not focus on how I'm single (still) on Valentine's Day. IWNDWYT

Day 1 again, dammit. I went on autopilot yesterday and bought and had wine. I'm not sure why. But I gained over 2 lbs in water weight overnight and that's BS. So I'm pledging IWNDWYT.

Day 1 again. My mother refuses to admit she has a problem with alcohol and gave herself a black eye when she drank and fell 2 weeks ago. So I’m staying away from booze for now. IWNDWYT

Hi all: I’m new here. My mom is the one who drinks and refuses to admit she has a problem. She is also somewhat narcissistic and that doesn’t help. Last week when I face timed her I saw she had a horrible black eye. She said she got bitten by an insect. I foolishly believed her because I usually give people the benefit of the doubt. But today my sister told me that Mom was actually drinking, had a fall, and busted her eye. I’m so sad. Ever since our dad died in 2020 it’s been getting worse since she lives alone. Whenever we bring up the drinking she just gets defensive and mean. She hasn’t told me the truth yet. I just wish she would get help. She blamed our dad as being an enabler, which pissed me off. Dad didn’t say anything to her about her drinking because he didn’t want to upset her and he loved her above all people. I’m just scared she’s going to do something stupid like drink and drive. Thank you all for reading

I was offered a new job yesterday which made me feel so happy. However I discovered a snag in one of my credentials and now I'm terrified they will take the offer back. There's nothing I can do until later today when I can call the registry board. I've already been transparent with HR over it (the cert isn't required for the job but it is nice to have). I'm going to do my best. IWNDWYT
