Really in a good place mentally at the moment all thanks to recovery and sobriety.
I have began the 'next phase' of my recovery and it is something which I was unable to face whils't I was still actively drinking and drugging and self-medicating and running away.
It feels good to be at a place where I truly actually want to get well. And by well I mean well!! Loving sobriety and recovery at the moment.
It doesn't bear thinking about where I would have been if I hadn't have gotten sober. Either way I would have been incredibly depressed and in such a dark place. Quite literally if it was a police cell or dead.
It's great because not only do I feel happy and in a good place but this also has a knock-on effect to those close to me ie- family and loved ones. Just like when I was in a dark and horrible place binging on booze and drugs this also made them feel really crappy. It is a nice ammend to make every day by being clean and sober to them. Feels good!
Grateful to be a recovering alcoholic.
