Hi guys!
The topic of self esteem just came up on the One Year and Under thread and I realised how much I have gained in that regard since April. Before that I didn't like myself much at all. All that sneaking around and hiding was in a way maybe as hard or harder on me than anyone. I just don't know where I got the energy! Enough to turn anyone into a ball of nerves.
Nice as someone said, to turn self-loathing into self-respect!
If I had to name just one main benefit of sobriety so far, I'm not sure what I'd pick but this would definitely be in the mix.
I'd be interested in your own views on the big changes in your lives since April. We're coming past the 4 month/third of a year mark which is an interesting moment to take stock.
Wishing you all well for a reflective Thursday
