Hi Laura
I think a lot of us come into recovery expecting instant, good, change. That's probably because we've had the immediate gratification of the bottle for so many years.
There are great benefits to recovery, but you might not see them in a month - you may not see them in 3 months - but you will see them
Today I love my life and I love who I am. Each day is a gift and I'm at peace.
I could never say that when I was drinking. Ever
