Today, I met a friend for lunch who I used to be close to two year ago before my drinking really got out of control. I told her about my alcoholism and my new sober journey. We had a great conversation and were able to reconnect. It really does feel wonderful to be back in the world of the living. I can't express how thankful I am for everyone who helped me make this decision and stick to it!
