Restless Sleep Mood
Tuesday, June 2, 2009 | A General Update story
So i really do have to say i feel great being sober, except the fact that i still have a hard time sleeping. I try to discipline myself to go the bed early, but sometimes i just feel like staying up late. And when i DO i stay up really late. Before i would get soo blitzed just before bed and just pass out. I would feel my body tingle a little bit as i would lay down. I LOVE that feeling. Just closing my eyes without thinking and quickly falling asleep. I think that thas why i like staying up really late now that i am sober, because it reminds me of that feeling. Deep down sleeping in sort of upsets me because i truly do love mornings and i like living a full day. I tend to feel like crap when i wake up in the late afternoon. Anyways, thats somethin i want to work on. And the best part, is i'm STILL SOBER BABY!

    Yes, remaining sober appears t o be at the top of the list for you, so I'm rooting for you in that area, especially. Make sure to surround your self with winners and not losers, okay? AA is just one of many good 12-step groupds out there. and, unfortunately, be cautious re. the array of "dirty old men" you'll likely encounter in such settings (and, unfortunately, even on this D.S. site). It's unfortunate to have to do this, but stay on guard, even though you're sharing much of what's private to you. That's okay for us to do, but beware of the wolves dressed as sheep, okay? :)
