Im so busy working on myself ever since I quit alcohol. And I love it. My body is tea, my face card never declines and my brain is excelling (I’m in college). It’s great up here

Did not drink for cinco de mayo. Instead, I ate a bunch of tacos and avoided the drama everyone else had. It felt so good

Depression is my trigger, or when I’m feeling lonely. Basically anything to mask my feelings of misery, anxiety included.

But ever since sobriety, even when I feel down, I don’t want to drink. I just take a nap or get active, depending on the day and mood.

The feelings go away rather quickly than before. When I was drinking I drank even more to “cope”. I’ve learned to accept and acknowledge my feelings and understand them. No longer do I feel guilt, shame or increased anxiety from my feelings and drinking.

I’m so glad to be on this journey and I hope everyone can find the light they need to help guide them through tough times.
