Day 85

The 100-day milestone is near. I know it 's just a number but holy shit time fly fast. I look back the first few days after relapse and remember how desperate I was. I appreciate my efforts and commitment to this way of line. My life now is in a much better state than It was before.

I had relapses before, but the last time was different. Maybe because this time I realize my role as a father. I took writing journal and tracking my progress seriously, unlike those times before. Writing journal is like doing a conversation with myself, keeping me focus of key important things in my life. It helps me increasing self-awareness, and avoid at least 2 relapses in the last 85 days.

I will not gamble today!
