Hello, hello. I’m new to this app, but I found myself at a low and was getting too deep into my head and figured I’d try to find something that can help get me out of it — because I know when I get in my head and start getting depressed or stressed, it would be when I usually turn to drinking…

You are not alone at all.

the fact that you came to this app when you were deep in your head means you’re really committed to your sobriety so i’m proud of you (: i was in that exact headspace 5 days ago and it’s already getting a bit better, it’ll be better soon

Its definitely great to find a place to l can vent what I’m thinking and feeling, especially since I don’t feel as though I can vent to anyone in my life — they wouldn’t understand. Smh.

Get to the gym and lift weights way heavier than you would normally lift set a goal while you’re there try to make that goal and literally every time you leave the gym you will feel unbelievably better

Don’t overthink it don’t overthink the preparation of trying to actually get in the car and get dressed and get to the gym and what you will look like etc. just get yourself there and do it and forget about everybody else in the depression etc. hit the sauna after decompress take a cold cold shower it will change everything

Lots of good people here with advice and help. Don’t be afraid to ask, we are here for you.

I can relate to “getting in (your) own head”! Stinking thinking!! So glad you reached out to ask for help! I have immediately made a few friends that have been available to text any time!! It’s been a life saver! I’m so thankful! And when I get those negative thoughts? I replace them with something positive/silver lining: and you’re reminding me to do that re: about a negative person in my life that in my head I am having a negative conversation with! :crazy_face::joy:
