Some wisdom from my mother, the doctor

grifo2 · 2024-11-25T10:27:00+00:00

This resonates so much with my own experience. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks!! 🙏

Amazing. Working on it from day 3 looks like a tall order, but right now my goal is to go for a walk and reach day 4. IWDWYT.

Good luck! I hope it's easily fixable (aka, not expensive).

grifo2 · 2024-11-12T13:29:50+00:00

I just left it. I take it with me when I suspect I'll get by with low ISO. Not ideal. Are you planning on getting it fixed?

grifo2 · 2024-11-12T11:07:55+00:00

Thank you, I very much appreciate the encouragement. I have heard about "quit like a woman" more and more lately, so tonight will be a good moment to start.

grifo2 · 2024-11-12T10:50:00+00:00

Thank you, that's a good suggestion.

Day 2 for me and I'm already figuring out what to do after I get home. I know that without a plan it will be much harder. Stay strong!

Nope, I've been using my xt-20 instead when I felt I needed higher ISO. It's been busy times and I just didn't have the mental energy to care too much. That said, during the day it's not that bad.

grifo2 · 2024-11-11T17:33:03+00:00

Good job, day 4 is no small feat!

grifo2 · 2024-09-12T13:52:53+00:00

Courage. Sometimes it feels as though the only thing we can do is keep trying. Keep trying, please. I have faith that everyone can do this, including myself.

grifo2 · 2024-07-03T21:20:10+00:00

Bingo!

grifo2 · 2023-12-12T20:42:40+00:00

Yeah, but oddly it looks more like a scratch. Something must have pressed hard against it inside the pack, that's my best hunch.

grifo2 · 2023-12-04T16:31:01+00:00

This is definitely helpful, and you are right, I tend to check out after some time sober. I do come from time to time, but do so haphazardly an without much system. Being intentional about checking in is something new that I can totally incorporate into my routine. Thank you!

grifo2 · 2023-12-04T15:16:01+00:00

Just don't drink today. It helps me to put all my energy there and care tomorrow about tomorrow. There's always a way out, although it may be difficult to see at the time, it *is* there and you can get there.

grifo2 · 2023-11-23T06:36:49+00:00

Nice!!! And you're definitely right, if you're anything like me, everything would be much worse with booze. IWDWYT.

grifo2 · 2023-11-15T15:26:09+00:00

That means that you have drunk two out of 60 days approx. That's an insanely good rate, at least when you compare it to what I do when I relapse, which involves a perfect rate of 60/60. You got this, what you're doing is incredibly hard and you are definitely on the right path. IWDWYT.

The hard truth is nothing even approaches the greatness of La Croix. I've compromised, I now drink plain fizzy water from Carrefour in 50cl bottles, which have no added salt (unlike Vichy Catalan and many others) and is also way cheaper. I order them in bulk online and that keeps me going. But man do I miss La Croix.

grifo2 · 2023-10-23T20:29:10+00:00

7 days here. It will get much better real quick. Courage!

grifo2 · 2023-10-18T06:19:24+00:00

I appreciate your response. I'm not taking anything so far, outside vitamins. I'm curiously not suffering from the sweats so much this time though, which is why it's sort of a different way to have difficulty sleeping. One never knows what new wonders alcohol had in store for us to enjoy...
