In the beginning I would have told you I had cravings.... after this past 2 weeks present me would laugh at beginner me and said something along the lines of "how cute he thinks he has cravings."
What's something you would tell your newly sober self if you could/can ?
One of those that seems so simple when you are happy and so absolutely impossible when you are not.
Thank you sholly I hope you have found happiness!!
There’s a pink cloud that you ride for a while. During that time you have to build bridges with people and stay active and forget about yourself and think about other things at least for me that’s what I went through and I am going through. You’ll have great breakthroughs knowing your sobe
Hey Zach! What do you think is causing these bad cravings? Is it fear, resentments, loneliness, etc? Do you do anything special to stay sober? If you haven’t tried t
one of the daily programs that I’ve heard discussed on many posts, I suggest you start there. Many people find a happy way of life by working these programs. If you are involved with one, definitely share what’s going on with someone so they can help you. If your not involved in one, you may want to think about getting connected before it’s too late. Save your a$$ before it gets worse. This disease will eat you up from the inside out. It’s good that you are reaching out and asking for help. That’s a good sign. Don’t stop here. Do whatever you need to do make sure that the drink/drug does not become your solution. I hate to suggest this, but I can’t leave without saying this…if you’re not going to AA/NA meetings, go asap. If you’re already going, share what’s going on with you. That’s what’s working for me. I’ve seen it work for many others. It can work for you.
Thanks soflo
I think I am falling back into day dreams or future trips or whatever phrase you will. I also jumped back into work and left the sober network I built in Florida to be back home.
Adjustments need to be made meetings have saved me a few times !!!
Thanks again for your advice !
Charles ! I've yet to find this pink cloud haha but I have heard many a story on the subject. I tend to help others to ignore my own problems so helping and giving back has always come easy and is, according to my therapist, something I need to work on. I also have no problem making bridges but for some reason I have a habit of abandoning them to swim in the current.
Stay Strong!
Stay Sober!
