Hi everyone. Here I am 25 (I think .. the first few days were a bit of a blur) days sober. I just got home from a 3/4 week stint in rehab. I feel amazing. I am sitting here amazing at how blue the sky is, about how beautiful the sound of the birds twittering is and enjoying a healthy lunch and a sparkling water with a slice of lime. A month ago I would have been oblivious to this beautiful world, I would have been nursing a head ache, feeling nautious and wolfing down junk food and alka seltzer and counting down the hours until I could open that first bottle.
I was one of those people who thought that rehab was "totally out of the question" for me... Financial problems; care of my children ; the stigma; I could do it on my own etc etc. But it was by far the best single decision I have ever made.
Peace and strength to you all.
