Remember to HALT

Never let yourself get hungry, angry, lonely, or tired. If these common basic needs are not met they could lead to relapse. Really important acronym to live by.

This is very important. I struggle with this bad. Especially the sleep and unhealthy or lack of eating. I try to keep busy with work, helping others and tend to neglect my own well being. Sleep, healthy eating and adding in some exercise can take us so far in recovery. :heart:

Mines hungry for sure and tired!

I often forgot that I need to take a break. I just want to be doing something 24/7. I have to learn that it is ok to do things simply because they are fun/ relaxing to do .

I still go out because I don’t want to be lonely. I’m finding that more times than not I’m not the only sober person at the bar

I need a cat that can make me sandwiches and coffee.

Today I feel all four been a rough one but I’m grateful today there’s many things to teach for other than a drink

I have a huge hate for any substances, especially alcohol. Almost two months and it seems like I’m always working on something with myself :heart:
