Agree...sobriety is an awesome lifestyle change
Those peaceful times happened more and more and lasted longer and longer as time went on.
Thank God home, in various locations and configurations, has always been a place to fully decompress and unstress.
When I crave, I know it will go away sooner than later wherever I am. But, home is my fortress of solitude.
Eating when I crave has been my goto move forever.
I also enjoy a big cup of homemade ice coffee (I use instant generic brands), decaf at night. Add a bit of sugar free hazel nut creamer....boom! Happiness in a cup!
I have never ever regretted waking up hangover free.
I remember, towards the end of my drinking days, looking at the bottle and thinking,...this is going to suck in the morning.
Once the physical addiction was over, 10 or so days, the mental has tried to get me to relapse, over and over....nearly everyday.
But, rather than fight the addiction....I embrace the sobriety.
Proudly sober. It has been a complete game changer.
Thanks.
