I've been craving sugar since I stopped drinking two weeks ago.
Going to start being healthy but have given myself a bit of leeway since getting sober.
Tonight, my wife discovered my secret stash of chocolate.
Better than the bad old days of her finding booze!

After a sober month I had a 1% alcohol drink. No harm done, I thought.
Then after a sober weekend I rewarded myself with just one beer.
That turned to 4 yesterday.
I'm annoyed but I've learned a valuable lesson.
You can't cheat the system. Day 1.

I'm a level of mental and physical fatigue that only complete peace, quiet and relaxation can solve - and I don't have that luxury unfortunately.
Might be time to take up meditation! ๐งโโ๏ธ
@madex0x Sometimes we can search for the answers and then something can happen when we least expect it.
You're intelligent, kind and determined.
Something good is coming your way Madison - it might be tomorrow, next week, next month or beyond.
But I know you'll get there x
A happy and peaceful new year to all my #RecoveryPosse friends.
Not been as active recently as I've been feeling a bit burned out but really value this community and met some fantastic people here this year.
Keep fighting the good fight and here's to a great 2024 for us all x
@CodyGRide@madex0x "Love ya chic" says the guy who encouraged a recovering addict to take heroin again.
Jesus Christ, if that's you loving someone I'd hate to see how you treat people you don't love.
@madex0x@whitestar262@CodyGRide THIS is what growth looks like!
Trying to drag you down purely for his own entertainment with no care whatsoever for your welfare - or the hard work you've done - is absolute gutter stuff.
You're doing amazingly. You're doing this for you and inspiring others along the way x
Went for a quiet drink today. Asked for a San Miguel 0% on draft.
He handed it me and I noticed the Estrella tap (next to the San Miguel) was dripping.
I checked before taking a sip it was definitely the 0% and he said "Sorry, wrong one!"
I laughed it off but Jesus Christ...
@madex0x@mrmojo23 "Facebook makes me cringe" says the self-proclaimed "Mr Mojo" who makes the dad out of Crazy Stupid Love look like a ladies' man.
What a weapon ๐ญ
@madex0x I'm not going to say "you're going to be fine."
You feel how you feel. I respect that and I'm so sorry.
But one thing I will say is this is how you feel now - and now is not forever.
Allow yourself to feel how you do but have faith that things can change - give yourself time x
