Trying to write a poem in my wife's valentine's card, what rhymes with boner?

Whenever I'm feeling stressed or anxious I like to take a deep breath & think about every mistake I have ever made.

If you're not sure what self-care works for you, ask yourself these three questions: What can I do within my power that will make me feel better? What helps me recharge when I'm feeling drained? Are my needs right now emotional, physical or practical?

My mind is out to kill me, and luckily for me I know it. I am constantly filled with a lurking loneliness, a yearning, clinging to the notion that something outside of me will fix me

So who managed to complete Dry January then?

The really frustrating part of addiction is that until a person is ready to stop, they're just not going to. There's nothing anyone can say or do. And the unfortunate part is that sometimes people die because of that.

It's been 6 months since I joined the gym and no progress. I'm going there in person tomorrow to see what's really going on

I read Stephen King’s book on writing and he was throwing out all these insane rules. “I go on a 2.5 hour walk every day. I read 80 books a year minimum. It should take no longer than three months to write a book.” At first I was like what the hell. Then I remembered the cocaine

One cannot get much more vulnerable than to expose oneself psychologically. To share oneself with another and then be misunderstood or rejected is, for many, a risk not worth taking. 1/2

Got rid of my Christmas tree this morning. Watched it get recycled. It was like the Willem Dafoe death scene in Platoon. Gutted.

The universe is a cruel, uncaring void, The key to being happy isn't a search for meaning. It's to just keep yourself busy with unimportant nonsense, and eventually, you'll be dead

The practice of putting the money you’d otherwise spend on drink aside is a great bit of motivation for people doing dry january. It quickly adds up and offers a unique financial perspective on your drinking #DryJanuary

Well done to everyone that stopped doing drugs (including drinking alcohol) this year and also well done to everyone that managed to stay stopped this year ❤️

What doesn’t kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a really dark sense of humour

Are you having a sober Christmas this year? #SoberChristmas

Try to stay in the moment, enjoy your time with friends and family, and be hopeful about the journey ahead of you in recovery ❤️ #SoberChristmas

Sober doesn’t mean missing out—it means truly experiencing the magic of Christmas. Cheers to a joyful, alcohol-free holiday #SoberChristmas

Let this Christmas be a time of renewal and joy as you celebrate your sobriety and the beauty of the present moment. #SoberChristmas

Sobriety makes it easier to keep a level head during what can be a stressful time of year. There are many factors why people binge drink over Christmas, and stress is a big one. Yet, alcohol can make stress and anxiety feel much worse #SoberChristmas

If it's not yours, don't take it. If it's not right, don't do it. If it's not true, don't say it. If you don't know, be quiet.

Normalise waking up on a Sunday without a hangover

We need to create a society where problematic drug use is treated as a health, not a criminal matter, reducing stigma and discrimination and enabling the person to recover and contribute positively to society

Sending love to everyone who’s trying to heal from things they don’t discuss ❤️

Many newly sober people endure gatherings and parties because they feel they have to. When you’re at an event, check how it is making you feel and if you feel like leaving, do so #SoberChristmas

Boss: you have to take a drug test Me: *knows all the drugs* no problem

MY EARS ARE FUCKED

Addiction is not a choice, or a personal failing, but a complex mental health condition that should be met with empathy and support

Everyone is into mental health awareness until it involves dealing with the actual difficult symptoms and behaviours caused by severe mental illness

it’s OK if your version of self-care doesn’t look Instagram-perfect

Addiction should be seen as a chronic health condition requiring long-term treatment in a similar way to diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis
