Thanks for the post Lancashire. I hope for us all many more days like this. Days of realization that life is just fine without being buzzed.
I went to dinner with my mom tonight, and we went on a shopping trip for some things I needed. Totally normal most say. A few months ago, no way. I might have been able to have had dinner with her, but OMG I needed to get home and buzz.
Like you, I no longer have the desire to do that to myself anymore, it is self harming. I miss too much. When I was sitting home alone drinking all I wanted wasto be able to do normal things. I won;t lie and say it has been easy, but it sure as hell has been easier than what I used to do with my time
