Knb, you did win the lottery! Yay! So many never wake up and realize that misery isn't the only way. There isn't anything about drinking that I would trade for my freedom.
Cheers, TeamAugust, to our success! Wooooooohoooooo!
Still experiencing emotional ups and downs-I cried while watching a Glee rerun yesterday and felt really sad about a dream I had this morning. Then I felt completely upbeat and friendly moments later. I'm glad my brain is returning to normal, but it reminds me to not make huge decisions right now. Things are becoming clearer, now, so I think I'm adjusting to sober life bit by bit (and maybe moment to moment).
School starts Tuesday and my work schedule changes as well. I'm looking forward to the increased structure, but I've been feeling as though my life is a bit empty. I have lots of activities that I have planned for the evenings, but I would really like the opportunity to be less self focused. Baby steps! Everyday that we don't drink is a success!
