Didn't know I was so strong.....

No I didn't, but I am. Happy to say I'm eating well, exercising and trying to keep the faith.
Goal for today is to pray and meditate a bit. Not huge goals, but my brain is fried and I'm having a hard time concentrating while at work and formulating sentences... I actually apologized to a client yesterday while on the phone as I was stuttering and unable to finish my sentence. Told her I had something personal going on. She was great. I'm feeling insular in my community and have shut out friends and canceled plans . I'm so sick of it all and I'm sick of talking about it. BUT was doesn't kill you makes you stronger!!!!!! One day at a time. One moment at a time. Breathe..... Breathe..... Breathe.
Today I will meditate and pray before I go to work. Namaste

Big bear hug to you Gracie. I got really insular in my closet drinking and shut out everyone including my own wife and two teenage kids. It was horrible. It\'s hard to do anything in early sobriety and that\'s where you have to take it easy on yourself and just promise yourself not to drink today. Day by day the head clears and you feel better and stronger - and the very little momentum starts to multiply and that tiny little spark starts the flicker of a small flame. Keep feeding it with the good like prayer and meditation. Be proud of yourself and remember that \"Time takes time.\" That is a lesson I am still working to learn. :)
