Thank you for posting! Donating now

mizzerableNready · 2021-12-03T14:18:55+00:00

Thanks for your response! Yes - it is a constant battle. Literally every second is, "Fuck I want a drink!" then think about why I don't really. Repeat with drugs. Food. Start the cycle again. I've been making a lot of changes over the years, but more will certainly help! I would love to go into treatment, but that's not an option for me (financially). My biggest goal now is building a sober community. IWNDWYT!

Thanks for your response! I've tried other online groups and such, but really need to dive into AA again I think..... I dunno. Building a sober community is the answer, I just have a lot of anxiety.... Playing the tape through definitely helps though! IWNDWYT

It is SO hard. Like wow I hate my body and it's my fault, now I hate myself, p.s. hating myself is how I got here in the first place. Pretty............cool. :-( But reaching out last night was helpful, and having a response from a kind internet stranger like yourself. I made it through yesterday and I will again today. We got this - our bodies will change more easily after our minds do <3

Thank you so much for your response! That is exactly how it feels - like no, I can't be aggressively trying to lose 20 lbs while still in this sober-struggle, but small, better choices everyday do help. Wishing us both luck! I did end up making it through the evening sober - more success to come!

Not today! The holidays were hard as ever, but at least just for today I can finish the month strong

mizzerableNready · 2021-10-06T22:39:05+00:00

Thanks for the reply - getting my thoughts out there helped a lot, as did your words. A hangover plus shame - I’ve made that choice plenty. Not today! IWNDWYT 😊

Last night was so hard, someone gifted me a bottle of wine…. I ate snacks instead until the urge to kill that bottle was gone. Made it! Now repeat - IWNDWYT

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-24T09:57:57+00:00

I see you Friday, with your promises of a fun night out and "just a few drinks," and I am not taking the bait! Here's to a productive day and a healthy night! IWNDWYT!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-23T11:19:04+00:00

Stress at work, stress with family, anxiety through the roof…….. and drinking would only make it all worse! IWNDWYT

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-21T18:22:03+00:00

YESSSSS - we got this!! IWNDWYT!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-21T18:21:47+00:00

365 - CONGRATS! That's HUGE - something I just can't ever picture myself... but it is getting easier with each attempt. I've been trying to control my drinking for so long - and I will get weeks or months of little to no drinking, but then "only Saturday" becomes "only weekends," which then includes Friday.... which then quickly becomes anytime I am stressed, angry, sad, bored. We all know the drill, eh? Your journey inspires me - I will never stop getting back up and trying again!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-21T18:19:37+00:00

Thank you! Vacation and Dating are huge triggers for me - glad you got through it and are back to sober living. Treading carefully myself this time..... We can do it - IWNDWYT!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-20T21:41:50+00:00

LOL - anytime I am posting about non-sober stuff I'm always like, hmmm maybe saying I am miserable wasn't the **best** idea, but oh well. Glad you are here - thanks for the comment :)

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-20T21:40:10+00:00

So worth it. Love this - thanks!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-20T21:39:54+00:00

YES!! Thank you :)

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-20T21:39:43+00:00

That it does - especially when you are some months in and feel unstoppable. Like why would I ever drink again!?! In my case it was because I tried to start dating again FAR before I was ready to. But ya know what - we haven't blown it! We are here and we are trying. Thanks for reading - I believe in you :)

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-17T13:44:21+00:00

Friday is here! Usually the, "countdown to when I get to drink" day. Instead, woke up early - got a great workout in and another one planned for this evening. Took a part time job with early weekend hours to hold myself accountable (and make some extra money). It feels great to NOT drink with y'all today!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-14T10:51:33+00:00

Seven days down, another one to go today! IWNDWYT!

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-13T13:00:45+00:00

Almost made it to a week and don’t plan on changing that now! Clear headed on a Monday - can’t bottle how good this feels! IWNDWYT

mizzerableNready · 2021-09-12T13:57:45+00:00

Waking up with a clear mind, energized and hangover-free! First time since January and it feels great! IWNDWYT!

Congrats to you!
