Best to you all as you stay sober through the next 24 hours.
Hello Shalisan and the Junebugs!
Shalisan, I can really relate to your experience at the bank. I remember going to work everyday and consciously noticing how
nobody else was hungover. I thought "wouldn't that be nice" without ever adding two plus plus and finding the answer: don't drink the night before.
My hangovers were medium: headache, parched for thirst, feeling dumpy in general. I wondered what it must feel like to feel good at 8:30 in the morning. In the past month I have had about 20 sober days. I am on day 4 now.
I like what you said about looking at the world through glasses with negative lenses. That is
exactly how I lived for three years. If I were to grade how I felt everyday at work it was a C-. Now I feel like an A everyday. Oh forgive me that was corny! But true.
Keep the posts coming. I love reading every single one!
