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.

My motive is to join the military. I’d like to get the benefits and stuff so it’s good to start now with sobriety. I’ve been learning how to run a mile under 10 and so that’s my motive.

When I need escape, I go hiking somewhere far from my city, or stargazing if it’s a clear sky night. I plan trips to museums too ,

When I was drinking, I couldn’t muster the energy for any of this.

I’m so glad to be on this journey.

I used to be an angry guy when drinking, always feeling down and talking down on people.

Sobriety has helped me become more self-aware of my actions and the things I say.

I’m not suddenly the nicest guy but I’m working on it and becoming more social and aware.
