    I normally wouldn’t post here as I’ve often said to myself that I wouldn’t unless I hit 90 days. I’m learning to celebrate small victories. For me, 50 days is a huge victory that I haven’t obtained in over 3 years.
    It’s been a hell of a ride and I must admit, it’s taken a lot of work. There are positive changes, there have been tricky moments, times when I have been tempted. I’m in a better space mentally and I want to keep going! I’ve been teaching myself to push through discomfort and, for me, the sauna and steam room has been a huge aid. It’s taught me to be away from my phone with my thoughts. It’s taught me to tolerate discomfort and push through.
    I have essentially quit Twitter and all other platforms that lead to relapse and replacing this with better options. I’m still a work in progress and I am making great strides. I’m not aiming for quick fixes but rather long term changes that promote and improve my well-being.
    I used to think that the mantra of one day at a time was silly and irrelevant. Now I am believing that it is of greater importance. I’m seeing it as moving a rock at a time to build something and setting a solid foundation to not fall down.
    90 days is in my grasp and at 90 days I’ll post again.
    I know that this will sound strange, but don’t wish me good luck. I don’t believe in luck with recovery. I believe that what I do makes difference and the work I do, it’s what I put in and has nothing to do with luck.

    Congratulations on your 50 days. You’re right to celebrate the small victories, but 50 days is no small feat. Keep working at it; I look forward to your 90 day post.

    Great Job! :emoji_raised_hands:

    Perfectly true about freedom being a daily choice,
    One that is infinitely more rewarding and satisfying than any short-term gain :emoji_pray:

    Keep up the good work! :emoji_thumbsup:
    Thank you for sharing positive energy with all of us! <3

    Congrats on 50 days. That's a huge sign you've successfully rebooted.

    I'm excited to reach that goal myself this time round.

    Congratulations sir! Keep up the good work. No matter what happens, the pain you endure, all of it is better than running from our feelings to our prior habits of self-soothing.
