Check in

[JohnnyLan]

Hey. I have been at recovery for quite awhile in other settings and on my own but one thing that I have missed is someone to check in with and to be honest with.

I am married, 40, with a family. And would really appreciate having someone I could check in with on a regular basis.

Hi.

I see you are new to the website.
I've been here a few years, but I am new to facing my issue with p head on, full heartedly.

I can check in with you, regularly. We can use this forum thread that we're currently in for that.

I don't have an internet connection at home at the moment--but I'll be able to view your check ins and make my check ins at least Monday through Wednesday.

Thanks bird-boy. I will post m-w then to let you know how I am doing. Feel free to do the same if you want. I am in A 100 day challenge right now and on day 6. I have gone 60 before but am looking for lasting change.

Thanks again

[Bird-boy]

You're welcome, and thank you.
Yes, i will let you know how I'm doing, as well.

I guess I'll "see you" Monday.

Hey Bird Boy

Just checking in today. How ya doing? Are you making progress? It's right about 10 days or so that I start really getting tempted... so, that's where I am.

But I am staying strong... staying clean. Trying not to hedge at all.

HI, JohnnyL. Sorry for not replying sooner--I've been really busy with homework. And also busy being lazy.

Internet at home would make it easier to update, but also may be too big a tempter.
I'm relatively okay; fell from urges (basic tv) a few times, but that has to stop happening. I'm going to figure out a plan of action, to halt urges.
That's what I have found out that I need to do--wishful thinking that I won't give in doesn't seem to work. It's only part of the equation for me.

How are you feeling this week? Did you have a good past 7 days?

Hi! How are you doing?
