I was a binge drinker. Some nights heavier than others. I would stop for a couple of days a week and thought that was enough for my liver to heal. Pretty much I focused my day around when and where to drink the rest didn't matter.

When I got sober 75 days ago it was the best thing I ever did. My life went from being meaningless to learning that there is more to life than the drink. I don't go to AA meetings. I use SR as my main source of recovery. I've read Rational Recovery which I will never forget. I just got on with life without alcohol and after the first month things got easier I got into a new routine without alcohol in my life.

Medication started working, built more confidence then I realised that I didn't really need alcohol but didnt realize it until the fog went away. Each day is a new day you start at day 1 soon that turns into a couple of weeks and POW 75 days. '

I started listening more to hardcore music and realised alot of people hate the drinking and drugging lifestyle I found my home there a place where you can be yourself in all your flaws but sober. So music and SR have saved my life.
