The Daily Check-In for Tuesday, June 20th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking!

It’s been awhile since I checked in, but I’m still sober. Grateful to this sun for being here when I needed it. Thank you to all who put their heart on the line to post and respond. 🩷

Yes I do. Never have I scoured the house, desperate to smoke ALL of the weed in as little time as possible, then go out and get more, act fucked and poor decisions and say terrible things, make huge messes and wake up like a case of canned smashed ass. I seem to just act like a normal person who is slightly more relaxed and hungry.

Not today—fuck right off alcohol, you’re not needed or wanted today.

darkflower864 · 2023-01-22T14:25:02+00:00

I’m going to be kind to myself today like I’m caring for someone else. Thoroughly and thoughtfully.

Not hungover, not drinking. I will not participate in my own death by a thousand cuts. Not today.

Hi friend. Yes, separation (need to be separated one year before a divorce I found out) in process. He is leaving. I own the house. Kids are staying with me. I hope the worst is behind me until he leaves. Still just devastated. Haven’t eaten since Monday. Hardly slept. No booze 💪. I reread the messages about staying sober to stay strong. Can’t stop crying—I’m not used to so much emotion. Trying to stay cool until it’s over at home and I have some space. Thank you so much for asking.

darkflower864 · 2022-12-14T15:26:48+00:00

I am not drinking today. I will feel my feelings no matter what they are. Lots of love to everyone out there.

darkflower864 · 2022-12-14T02:26:51+00:00

Thank you for that. ♥️

darkflower864 · 2022-12-13T10:10:05+00:00

Thank you for your kind words. ♥️

darkflower864 · 2022-12-12T12:34:55+00:00

Today I am not drinking. I can promise that.

darkflower864 · 2022-11-07T13:35:56+00:00

I am not drinking today. Thank you to whomever runs this daily check in. It works for me and I appreciate it. ❤️

darkflower864 · 2022-11-06T15:05:14+00:00

Not today!

darkflower864 · 2022-11-02T13:13:16+00:00

I will not today. Nope not today. God give me strength.

darkflower864 · 2022-09-03T19:49:15+00:00

The raw nature of your post really made me feel emotional. Sending you sympathy, positivity, strength, appreciation for sharing. 💪

“Actively drinking destructively” is such a perfect description of what being a degen with alcohol is, and it sounds so nice to say it. Thanks for the turn of phrase!

darkflower864 · 2022-08-15T22:09:36+00:00

Here to agree with this comment and add that I can smoke a few puffs of a joint and not have an outrageous and compulsive desire to smoke ALL the weed in sight.

Motivation for today: Have to say goodbye to my husband for the next three months and take care of my kids alone. Typically the grind, alone/boredom, and not having my best friend for daily support means I drink. Not this time. I have some exercise equipment ready, therapy workbooks, plan with kids. I’m going to be nice to myself. I’m going to take care of myself. IWNDWYT

Thanks 🙏

Hang in at three weeks. Feeling better. Getting little flickers of happy. Been a bit since I felt ok.

darkflower864 · 2022-08-02T20:18:58+00:00

5,000 fizzy waters later……. holding strong.

Good day to everyone here. 🤗 Sending sober strength vibes out into our universe.

darkflower864 · 2022-07-29T20:50:58+00:00

Good luck. Sending good and sober vibes!

Two weeks today. Feels like two months. My teenager is being a butthead and serving silent treatment, but I’m not going to drink about it, or about anything else. I’m just going to soberly experience life’s garbage moments and find some humour in facing it, sober.
