It's a quick fix. Until it's not. I would practice such healthy habits all day, then when I'd get home from work, drink a bottle of wine while cooking, and another one throughout the night. Year. After year. After year.
I can't imagine the meds would have worked on me though had I not gotten sober. I might as well have flushed them down the toilet with the morning vomit.
Such a sick sick cycle. I'm so grateful to have woken up to the truth.
You deserve a better life. It's waiting.
