This will be short as I’m feeling comfortable and mellow but not really in a writing mood. I’m feeling good on day 5. The sensation of relief is still there and I feel subtly different in some way that I don’t fully understand – it’s a very good thing though.
I haven’t been up very long and it’s early evening. I’ve had a few nights of long shifts and too little sleep. I’ll probably fall asleep on the sofa soon, the circadian pull toward some darkness-hours sleep is strong. I’m very happy that I’ll be doing this sober.
I can still feel the effects of the amazing support I’ve received over the last few days. Although I don’t see or touch or know anybody that I interact with here I’ve sort of sensed your invisible presence in my quieter moments – a presence that understands, and ‘has my back’. Thank you again.
A high five to those in a good place and an outstretched hand to anybody struggling – have a good sober day folks x
The only day that matters is this one and it seems like you are living it well. Keep up the good fight!

Dear TOTW,
I thank you for your support.
The pull of addiction is so strong.
It took me several years of trying to really get that.
But life is really better now.
I am so glad you are on your way!
Happy Day 5…or 7 by now!
