Whatever it is I know that drinking will never make it better, it will make it worse worse worse. So get out, take a walk. Reach out for support. I'm thinking a lot about how when I feel boozy I want to hide and how that's when I really need to step out into the light and not do what I usually do- isolate, eat. Instead I need to put my phone down, step away from the cookies and play some cards with the kids or write or yoga or walk or anything that feeds my soul but not my disease. Keep going!!!! <br /><br />Oooop, I haven't been posting much but I'm going to make effort to write more. This has been on my mind a lot too- how I need to keep working my tools that keep me in strong recovery and not just sober. <br /><br />xoxoxoamyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05121059866790215726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136268241054850544.post-27855892212484538082014-06-21T08:40:14.556-04:002014-06-21T08:40:14.556-04:00Day one turns into day two- if you let it.

I love your blog....I can relate to it so so much. I check daily to see if you've posted and was so happy to see this this morning...it's helped me more than you can imagine. I'm 39 now, 3 children and have drank almost every night for the past 18 years! When does the internal brain chatter stop?! Yes I miss wine...is that normal? Yes I want to moderate....but know deep within me that I can't. See, the truth is in the "but". Brilliant post, thank you again :) XXXSoberInLondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16906983153101719096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136268241054850544.post-21239221384609908732014-06-21T02:29:48.086-04:002014-06-21T02:29:48.086-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.SoberInLondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16906983153101719096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136268241054850544.post-79824484607244561352014-06-21T01:07:59.364-04:002014-06-21T01:07:59.364-04:00You and I would be best friends if we lived in the...You and I would be best friends if we lived in the same state. I have been reading you on and off for a year. Today is my Day 1. Again. I think it's the 15th Day 1 this year. Everything you say is true! It's how I feel - mid 40's still trying to be cool .. to fit in. A square peg wanting to fit in a round hole. Or any hole other than the square one where I fit. Sigh. Day 1.

What a smorgasbord of things to think about. I have to come back and re-re-read this. Many thanks for passing along these not yet posted lovely bits of your thinking. I'm heartily with you on not wanting/needing things to be so freaking easy (though I also drop into saying, "Don't be too hard on yourself" to other people, and I've probably even said it to you!) It's OK if things are hard and they hurt and sometimes I try but can't do them. Taking it easy is missing out on life, I think. I also love your Soul30. I think I'm trying to live like that, though of course I don't always manage it and there is a lot of cheese and dark chocolate in my day to day. Lots of love to you. xoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08288935120774241198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136268241054850544.post-54386876530733022562014-06-20T12:15:45.963-04:002014-06-20T12:15:45.963-04:00Brilliant...simply fucking brilliant.Brilliant...simply fucking brilliant.SoberMomWriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04845259535764391849noreply@blogger.com
