Dear Addict,
190 days! 26 weeks! W O W! This is a huge milestone for me! I’m halfway to an ENTIRE YEAR of sobriety at this point! (When I hit 365 days on Dec 7th I will probably be bawling like a baby from tears of joy, lol, because it’s something that I never thought possible in a million years until recently.)
Several people have told me that their brains felt “magically healed” somewhere around the 6-month clean & sober mark, and I can vouch for it!
I’m starting to break through barriers in all facets of life! I’ve completely stopped thinking that certain events/things would be BETTER either drunk or high, and I am no longer going through life while operating in a constant state of fear/paranoia.
Once again, I was never an everyday drinker—I could go weeks without a drop—but whenever I did drink I drank to the point of oblivion. Doing that to your body repetitively for nearly two decades is definitely going to mess the equilibrium up.
Also, I’ve read the effects of alcohol linger in the body for days. My mind-body connection is more solid than it’s ever been. I never would have had the confidence to become self-employed while I was drinking/drugging.
I now have unwavering faith that I can be, do, and have anything I want in life as long as I focus on total sobriety, one day at a time! All of your support means the world to me!
After all, I knew the only way I’d ever be able to stop was by outing myself publicly for some major accountability, and it’s working, especially since I’m able to help others while helping myself.
Love you all sooo much! ?Oh, and a special “cheers” goes out to all of the people that laughed at me, telling me I was too addicted to ever give up my vices permanently.
I have not craved one single drink or one single drug since the very instant I made up my mind that the excruciating pain was no longer worth any of the fleeting pleasures I got from the mind-altering substances.
It’s going to take a lot of hard work and I will never be in the clear, but I’m up for the challenge because I’m too important to me to let alcohol/drugs ruin my best life!?
