Havent been on here in a while other than to talk to some of the people who checked in on me long ago..wishing I would have taken advantage of the people here willing to help. Today marks one month sober (ive relapsed 3 times now) while dealing with divorce. And I feel no reason to celebrate. What are some things that you guys did to keep your mind busy? Ive cleaned my house so many times and done as much laundry as possible while trying to do other things other than drinking. I am lost. I wont be around family or the people that can help me the most until next week.

Sorry you're going through it...been there. What kept me from drinking and able to get through the really hard moments were these things...maybe some of them will help you get through this really difficult time. Prayed, read the BB, called my sponsor, went to 90 meetings in 90 days, yoga, meditation, went to the gym, walked daily and listened to "Joe & Charlie's" take on the BB that's on the Everything AA app...how they broke it down and make you laugh is life changing...they make it make sense. Hope some of this helps. ODAAT and take care of you!!!
