I have a chronic illness and went through testing, waiting for results, figuring out a plan, etc. It’s time consuming, energy draining, and anxiety inducing for sure.

I can tell you that my physical symptoms drastically decreased when I quit drinking. I was able to decrease the amount of meds I used to control my disease just by quitting drinking!! That’s hugely telling, for me.

Diet and exercise play a huge role in my overall health and pain as well. Those are two factors that I had trouble managing/doing while actively drinking. Now sober, I am able to easily manage these two aspects.

My my health anxiety has decreased as I’ve regained control of myself and my body.

Drinking didn’t do me any favors. Hoping you get some answers soon and can figure out a health plan. Take care!
