After about 3 weeks sober, we have a new habit of not drinking.

Choosing to drink after that time would be breaking that habit.

SR has taught me all about what booze does to me.

I know without a doubt that if I relapsed I would immediately feel weak during my workouts.

My BP would go up. My sleep pattern would be altered. I would also get sick easier.

Why do I need a drink to escape reality. I don't want to lose any more reality than I already did.

My confidence would be altered as well. I would be chemically altered.

So many bad things will happen just to escape reality.

I just had a bowl of ramen. It had spinach, eggs, and cheese. It was delicious. During every bite, my reality was altered.

I worked out this morning. As I lifted the heavy heavy weight, I got an adrenaline/dopamine/endorphin rush. I was high on life.

That is how I want to live for the rest of my life. High on life. No booze required.

Drinking has been unlearned.

Thanks.
