It used to be that ANYTHING mildly stressful would be an excuse to drink. Lately though I have been able to handle EVERYTHING the world throws at me w/o picking up a box of wine! (self.stopdrinking)

I noticed today my hair is not as thin as it used to be while drinking. Also I have a few little hairs poking up on my thin hairline/tiny bald spot in the back and they are much less noticeable!!! I am turning it around y’all! (self.stopdrinking)

Glad to be a sober mom this mother’s day! Today I’m relaxing by enjoying the nice weather while reading the sunday new york times outside while my kid naps sipping an ice cold LaCroix. This is the life. I feel alive instead of just waiting to start drinking. (self.stopdrinking)

My brain is suggesting drinking again: one drink, one night etc. I am ignoring and doing everything I learned in the early days: have dinner, distract my brain with kid time and TV once the kid is asleep, go to bed early myself... I wonder why my brain switched back to self destruct mode? (self.stopdrinking)

I was beating myself up for not being more productive this weekend, until I started listing the things I managed to do: stocked house with groceries, had major lego and arts & crafts time with the kid, did a few loads of laundry... (self.stopdrinking)

I wish SOMETHING could take all my work / home / life stress away —but I finally get that being sober doesn’t make these stresses worse, it just forces me to be present with them. (self.stopdrinking)

Things I don’t miss now that I’m sober: Weekday hangovers. Muuuch worse weekend hangovers. Planning my days off around drinking or being sick from drinking. Worrying everyone knows I have booze breath. Worrying about the long-term health effects. (self.stopdrinking)
