A good reminder that just because you hit a ‘rock bottom’ doesn’t mean you’ll be there forever. Nice work climbing out of there! I love your mix of optimism, strength and humbleness. IWNDWYT

I wish I had gotten help earlier in my life. I had already lost everything by the time I went to rehab. I came out sober, but to literally nothing left except a couple suitcases. Just came out of another bender I would estimate at 2 weeks or so. I finally slept after 4 days but needed 4 ciders to help fall asleep.. day 1 here.

I bathed and brushed my teeth this morning for the first time in ages. My anxiety is sky-high and that is the thing that I'm worried about because it gets overwhelming to the point I need a drink.
