Sobriety is hard

I’m so proud of myself . I’m at a week sober . Also I just signed up for yoga 12 step today . That’s been a hard step for me for some reason . Idk why I was trying so hard to avoid it . But I’m signed up now and I’m happy to be sober . It’s not easy . :heart:

One week is great! Congrats :tada::confetti_ball:! It’s definitely not easy in the beginning, but it certainly wasn’t easy being a drunk anymore either. Hope you find some relief with the yoga 12 step :pray::peace_symbol:

Sobriety is definitely hard but waking up hungover and with last night's mistakes is definitely worse. Keep going you got this. There's people who believe in you and remember to own the day don't let it own you.

Marissa, spot on and congratulations! / not easy while right, what has been mentioned - so much better than waking up with the self loathing , regret, y’all want my whole list or “ just the top ten “? You have inspired me to do yoga today and to remember to frickin’ b r e a t h e properly. Today feels so anxious ridden, more than usual ( which is usually a lot )! I need a reset. I will n o t drink with y’all today, tonight.

Clarification! By reset , I mean — partaking in nourishing resets for mind , physical being, soul wise. I did not mean like a reset relating to sober days-dang! Thankfully.

Ellis, hi and thank you for the information! Loosid fam-sorry to sound like some broken record while I am unable to ah, like yalls comments. Failed error message shows up. I guess I should shut down my phone? Anyway, Ellis-sounds awesome! My mom is a yoga instructor , she returned to India in her 60s to get certified. Yeah. She and my younger brother are the opposite of me-healthy and disciplined. While hey! I am here so will give this self credit for trying to improve and be there for myself! I am just now reading your suggestion, Ellis. I will count on making the next one?! Appreciate.:nerd_face:
