One big hurdle down

So last night I got through my day 2, which would have been the day I would usually drink because I was an every other day binge drinker.

Today was a little strange, a little fuzzy headed but that might just be my body adapting to getting some proper sleep for the first time in a long time.

Yesterday was pretty funny as I kid you not I felt somewhat buzzed off vitamins. Just eating lots of fruit and veg my body reacted like I'd given a man dying of thirst a big jug of ice cold water.

Perhaps this is why smoothie bars are a thing, I never got them before.

Anyway, today my mind is in a different place. Before it was just getting over that first hurdle and now I'm adjusting to how I view my days. Before the morning was something I feared so I treated the night like it was my last on earth (which if I kept going may have come true) now I can look forward past this day. Its strange that when I go to sleep I sometimes feel a real sense of joy knowing that I won't wake up in pain and I'd say that's my favorite part of being sober so far.
