I have always resonated with ths clip. I'll always share it. Acknowledge the saboteur within. They are not on your side. #RecoveryPosse #odaat

Day 18: Today I went into a 'Dry Bar' because my regular writing cafe was super busy. It's a bar specifically designed for people in recovery. It has the social experience (and even support advice) - but no alcohol! Today was a good day. #RecoveryPosse

Day 14: The calm after the storm. The entire city feels quiet now. I feel great for not going out last night. Well rested, ready to work on some side projects in a nice cafe for the morning. It was worth holding out. My friends who went out are all wrecked now. #RecoveryPosse

It's like an itch... the whole city is out enjoying themselves and I'm here pretending I can't hear the laughs and cheers. Pretending I don't want to mingle and laugh with my mates. It's a hard one tonight. But I'll make it. #RecoveryPosse

@richsullivan Try sparkling water with a slice of lemon? The carbon/bubbles slow you down, it's healthy, and it looks like a vodka lemonade to everyone else ✌️

Sober folks, what do you order to drink when you’re out? I ask because I’m aware I drink far too many diet sodas and have a tendency to order them at dinner or lunch out. I tore through two and a half Diet Cokes before our meal yesterday afternoon and our server brought 4 to the table for me. This made me see how much of a problem it is for me. Sure, no calories but there’s nothing good in it. I’m thinking I’m gonna institute a new rule of water or soda water only.

Day 13: Amazing weather. Great energy in town ready for the Eurovision final tonight. People here from all over the world. I've told my friends I won't be out tonight before they ask. Saturdays are my weakest days for sure. But I've got this. I am in control. #RecoveryPosse

Day 12: Friday again. An extremely busy one with the Eurovision crowd in town. I can't deny the temptation. But I know I would regret it. So I'm starting a new show, getting in the gym, working on my fiction novel. I'll be glad I resisted when I look back. #RecoveryPosse

Day 11: Crazy busy in work today. I'll be treating myself to some top quality sushi on my next day off... not a self-destructive night out. Instead of enjoying music in some club I won't remember the next day, maybe I'll buy some new headphones for the gym. #RecoveryPosse

Day 10: Keeping busy is the key. Building forward, not looking back. I do believe that. But I also wonder if distracting myself is just a temporary fix. If I pretend to have my life together for long enough, will it eventually just come true? I hope so. #RecoveryPosse

Day 9: Instead of wasting money on drink, I went shopping for exercise gear instead. It's hard to imagine how in shape I would be if I had spent half of my hangover days in the gym over the last few years. Time to get to work. #RecoveryPosse

Day 8: Being in work this weekend has really helped. Next weekend is Eurovision in the city and all my friends will be out. I'm going to book some gym PT sessions to avoid the temptation. Keeping busy is the key. So that's my plan. We got this #RecoveryPosse

@sobergirl__ Stephen King's Fairy Tale is a great balance of fantasy and horror. Oh, and it's about a dog 🐶

Recovery requires a person to muster up the courage to shine a light on those parts of their life they would rather ignore. #sober

Day 7: What a fast week. I'm keen to get on top of some tasks in work today and tomorrow. And for my gym gear to arrive before my PT session on Monday. I don't have a single regret about starting this path. I hope I can keep it up in the weeks / months to come. #RecoveryPosse

Did I go out drinking this Friday night? No. Did I register with a local gym? Yes. What unpredictable times we live in... No more self destruction. It's time to start a new kind of life. #RecoveryPosse

Day 6: I slept better. I also enjoyed a podcast / Twitter space hosted by some #RecoveryPosse members in the US last night. Thanks again @thesoberheathen No serious temptation to drink yet. I'm hoping the weekend won't be too difficult. Today I'm going to a meeting.
