Ok so I've not updated y'all in a few days. I'm ok, I'm alive. I did relapse. It was a pretty hard multi day relapse. But I'm on day 2 of being clean right now again and I've started back on my beyond sober program. I guess I never really talk about what is in the beyond sober program... I mean...- slw0363

Let's work on some beyond sober homework... 6: If the only thing you're in control of is the way you react, what are you struggling to get control over? What do you wish you had control over? 6a...- slw0363

Well I went to the gym. I only walked (slowly) for 20 minutes today. I maybe went .75 miles until my chest started hurting. I wanted to get my heart rate just to see but the heart rate function on the treadmill I was using apparently didn't work, I'm sure that my heart rate is very elevated...- slw0363

Hey guys how's it going? So I'm sorry for being short last night... I relapsed last night and like I knew I was going to when I posted that picture and that's probably why I was so short and really I should have said something... But I didn't. And I didn't because it just looks like I'm choosing...- slw0363

I've been working myself up the past 5 days. I started at one mile and almost died. Now I'm up to two miles and sure it almost killed me but I did it. Let it be noted that I did NOT feel like going today and even when I was there I was trying to find excuses to leave. I'm glad I didn't. Shelby...- slw0363

Hey guys how's it going? I'm going to keep this short because I maybe got like 6 hours of sleep last night and I worked all day and went to the gym (for the third day in a row!) so I'm super tired.
