You are among friends and family here. So many of us have been exactly where you are.

Getting sober is extremely uncomfortable. Physically, emotionally, cognitively. But I’m sure you know that.

The good news is it absolutely does get better. Not puppy dogs and rainbows better, but look at yourself in the mirror and finally like that person you see better.

Embrace the discomfort, it’s growing pains. All the **** you did drunk will come back to haunt you, but you don’t have to stay haunted. Let it move through you. Take ownership of what you’ve done, and get past it.

You’re already making a great start.

Be honest with yourself and your feelings, don’t drink, own your ****, get past it, learn to love yourself. That’s pretty much recovery in a nutshell.

You’ve got this!
