Getting ready
I was in the awesome class of May 2018 and then ended a two week streak in my dad's whiskey cabinet over Memorial Day. Instead of forcing myself into depressing cycles of day 1 on repeat (I honestly find the day counting more negative than helpful... I think sometimes people get so disappointed to put the counter back to zero that they get off the path entirely), I've been trying to focus on a plan, a path, and timing. I think my worst slips are caused by hormones, and my longest times without have been when I started at a good time hormonally. When I have moments of calm and my brain keeps saying 'It's going to be ok', then I know that I'm at my strongest and it's time to make that big change. Well, I got that call from my brain today, so I'm packing away the credit cards, stockpiling herbal tea, and getting ready to make my life better forever.
