Turning 40 tomorrow. 226 days sober today. This will be my first sober birthday since - I don’t even know when...second one in a pandemic, not that I really do anything to celebrate. Can’t wait for the warm weather to come back (it’s cold in Idaho).

Well now I actually have to work and manage my depression and anxiety instead of “drinking it away”. It’s hard - my life was pretty good before I let the drinking get out of hand for a couple years. Hopefully I can get back there!
I hear that. I find what I interpret as cravings is actually me just looking for an easy escape from those things. I have been working hard on exercising and meditating daily. I now find if I am feeling anxious a little walk and a 10 min meditation does the trick.

Happy Birthday 
!!! I can relate to now struggling with how to tackle anxiety. I used to handle it the same way you did. Finding the actual source of my anxiety can be hard sometimes. Have you ever experienced that?
I rarely know what causes it. Sometimes it’s just obvious - bills, family, moms cancer, etc. but most of the time there is absolutely nothing I can trace it to. Now I’m medicated, but we keep having to switch and side effects are changing - and it’s just terrible - but you gotta just keep going for awhile so that everything can balance out....just a struggle right now.
Awesomeness !!!
