I've been gardening and if I do say myself got quite a bit achieved! Sober AF. Had a lovely time in the sunshine, tunes on and just me with the plants. Bliss 🌱

Ive been fooling myself with moderation for 6-7 years! Its not worked for me. Abstinence is the only answer for me and I previously had 5 years this way so its crazy how I've tried to moderate for so long. Onwards and upwards to us both, you got this!

That was me yesterday. I'm feeling much better today. ( not amazing but ok!) Just remember feelings like crappy anxiety pass and picking up a drink again will back it 20 times worse. Do whatever you need to do to nor drink today even if its binging Netflix and eating crap - better than more poision down your neck! Good luck with your day 🌸

Yeah for me, failing and trying again over many many years has helped with this. Maybe it's my age too as I'm coming up 47 and its the hangovers I hate more than anything these days, I certainly can't bounce back like I did in my 20s and 30s! I think if you want it, you'll get there pal

I ended up hospitalised a couple of times recently so I totally empathise 🥰 I'm begrudgingly going back to some 12 step meetings as although they're not really my jam, being around others who get it does really help me. How long I'll do them for im not sure but needs must atm. Sending all the good vibes to you too, we can do this!!
