It’s amazing what sobriety can do to you. NYE last year I was drinking myself into oblivion at home, depressed and lonely because I had no one to celebrate with. Single mid 30s guy with no single friends etc I felt very sad. Looking back, I was quite at rock bottom with my drinking. I was drinking around 10
Bottles of wine a week.
Fast forward to this NYE. Chilled in home alone with a cup of tea and a movie but I was absolutely happy and content. I’m not lonely, I’m not depressed. Just shows the mental abyss drinking throws you into.
