7 years and still feel a newcomer
Its 7 years today that I managed to pull up from a race to the bottom.
What have I learnt in the last year.
1. Don't give yourself a hard time , everyone is flawed.
2. Alcoholism is one of the most underinvested, underground , stigmatised , pervasive problem that society faces and this needs to change.
3. The longer you stay sober, never forget how bad it was, especially at the moments of temptation such as Christmas, birthdays, special occasions etc.
4. Be proud to be sober its a sign of strength and compassion.
Above all , respect all who suffer from this disease, abstinence is the only approach to fulfilling a love filled life.
Wishing you all health and happiness. X
