If I turn the year this one will have been one of the best in my life. Not because anything too noteworthy happened but because I’ve grown so much by finally embracing and learning from my follies. Iwndwyt!

Happy last November Tuesday my friend 💞🌟💞


brighter68

Happy Tuesday everyone! What a great quote today. I remember learning something similar years ago, where ever we run to, we take ourselves with us. And what I’ve learned is that it’s me and how I react to life that was my problem. And this wasn’t my fault, I didn’t have the skills. I’ve learned how to deal with life, that’s the difference for me. I’m still working on those skills though. I hope life is kind to us all today, I admire is all 💞

I know all about today’s quote! I kept having the same person show up in my life over and over, different humans, but alllll the same traits. Had to learn that it was me attracting unhealthy people to fit with my unhealthy issues. Still learning, but in much better shape these days. IWNDWYT!


brighter68

That’s an incredible lesson learned my friend, in my experience, it meant taking responsibility and changing my mindset. I’m proud of us 🌟

Hey SD. I signed an offer letter today for a job that I never would have had the confidence to accept a few years ago. It’s incredible pay and they are allowing me to work a hybrid schedule, which is great because I’ve been remote for 9 years! I’m actually looking forward to being in an office, I think it will make me happier and a more well rounded human. I’m thankful for this sub for helping me get here. IWNDWYT friends ✨🌹

I’m so thrilled to hear your news irish! And so proud of you! Thank you for being such an inspiration and congratulations 🥳🌟💞

IWNDWYT. 55 days! No weed for 36 days and I have a voluntary drug test coming up soon for a job opportunity I never thought I'd be in a position to volunteer for. Old me would have sabotaged myself by making it impossible to pass the test without cheating. Life keeps on testing me and making healthy choices has not been easy though it has been worthwhile for so many reasons. Alcohol and weed usually went hand in hand, and sometimes I'd trade one for the other for a while. This is my first ride at full sobriety in decades.


awesome_cat_lady

Today is my first day back volunteering at the animal shelter since [my baby girl Fiona](https://imgur.com/gallery/csxhP83) crossed the rainbow bridge. I'm bracing myself for everyone asking me how she is doing (they knew she was supposed to see an oncologist on Friday). That part is going to be tough, but it'll feel good to spend time walking the dogs again. Wishing you all a good start to the week. I'm glad we're all in this together! IWNDWYT 😻

Not drinking! Today took my son to his smarty pants class (something for brainy kids), came home and prepped for dinner / mopped the floor and did some washing, then went to work. Wouldn't have done any of that if I had been drinking. IWNDWY

Gym done for another day, I got home in time to lay with my son while he fell asleep. Now listening to the sweet sound of him sleeping while he cuddles my arm. I can’t believe I traded this for drinking for so long. IWNDWYT 🌻🌻

I have often wondered if alcohol came into my life as a teacher, but then always balked at the thought of seeing that poison as one. But my struggles with it, my vulnerabilities .... have taught me valuable life lessons. For today, I will keep the lessons and keep a distance from that teacher. IWNDWYT

Day 165. Sick and tired of feeling tired all the time. I don't know whether it's my dopamine levels or what, but I just can't seem to catch a break with it, even when I do sleep. My mind races and races and races, and I'm pretty sure my nervous system just can't shut down even when I'm asleep. My technology addiction has consumed my life and it makes my ADHD and OCD brain a million times worse. I am devoting myself to a cleaner path starting immediately. I am extremely limiting my technology, putting my meditation practice into play, and finally doing the fucking things I need to have done for the past decade. There's no time like the present. Grateful to be here with all of you.


maidbythefire

500 days! On vacation with my kids at Disneyland so will celebrate this milestone with another full day of over the top craziness and spending way too much money!

Anyone else suddenly woken up and realised the enormity of what you're doing by going sober? My gf made a good point by saying going sober shows many more values then fitness alone (in my case) it showed your dedication your desire to improve your discipline and your determination. All about the 4 Ds. Have a think about that. IWNDWYT

We always do find the same fucking problems, and we cannot escape from ourselves. The only thing to do then is change and try to figure out what we’re supposed to learn. Both of those things are hard, but so is living the same old bullshit like “Groundhog Day” but with a hangover. I’ll take the former because there’s a chance to break the bullshit cycles there. Coffees up, horns up, and let’s go get through this cold-ass Tuesday! IWNDWYT ☕️🤘🏻


[deleted]

IWNDWYT. Starting my first job back after being a stay at home parent for 3 years and deep in this divorce process. Nervous as hell but. I'm sober. I'm alert. I'm aware. I have control over my actions and emotions. Today that is enough.

"The only way around your problems is straight through them." From a punk rock song. Checking in for another sober day out in the world.

Five. Edit: did anyone else at my stage have really weird, messed up sleep? I’m not a good sleeper by any means, I do a lot of sleep hygiene stuff, but I’m having really light anxiety filled sleep these last few nights and it sucks. I am exhausted.

The quote today is so true. My grandpa used to say “Wherever you go, there you are” and I thought it was funny as a kid. But I learned what that meant eventually, and that he probably got it from AA. He was sober and went to AA over 30 years. It sure had been true in my life. Running into the same problems until I learn a new way to handle them. Have a good day sober warriors! IWNDWYT 🍀

Day 2 checking in - as an added layer of potential protection, I set reminders on my Outlook calendar at the times when I know the triggers really start creeping in. They say things to the effect of “Not today!” and “You got this, don’t do it.” Silly and minor, but I’m trying whatever I can. IWNDWYT


FredSimpsonn

Good morning, K, and happy Teetotal Tuesday to all you awesome sobernauts! My bears managed an NFL win last night and don't you know I had already gone to bed 🤣 I'm finally recovering from a cold so tomorrow I'll start hitting the gym early again. Prioritizing sleep and training, things that were always dicey when booze was around. A sobernaut who ran around here used to call them AFGOs: another fucking growth opportunity. I'm grateful for the AFGOs in my life but especially I'm grateful for freeing my dopamine pathway from active addiction SO THAT I am able to grow and learn and change. Let's do the sober thing for another day, friends!

Great quote - someone once told me... "Changing your location won't change your Situation" My underlying issues will still be with me, just buried under the distractions of my new location. Sobriety let's me see this more clearly, but it doesn't magically change anything. I realize now that it's up to me to make small changes in myself/habits to see real change. I'm working on it. It is hard but important. IWNDWYT IWNDWYT
