A Movie That Reminds Me How Bad I Was... Well In Some Way.
So tonight I was watching this movie called Repeaters. 3 drug addicts are in an addiction centre to recovery from obviously drug addictions and they relive the same day over and over. And during these times of repeat they keep using drugs, getting drunk as hell and getting in trouble. The trouble keeps rising and rising and soon they are committing murders, robbing banks only to wake up the next morning with everything reset as if nothing ever happened.
This movie showed alot of things I did when I drank and assumed everything would be okay the next day and then I would drink again. I would not recommend anyone who is in early sober life to NOT watch this movie though because it sure had me thinking of my old ways. Though the movie does has it's seriousness they figure out how to stop the day repeating simply by learning to not do drugs anymore or anything reckless.
I haven't posted in awhile and was bored so I figured I'd type out my thoughts. I guess it reminded me how I kept thinking everytime I would drink everything would be okay but then when I drank I'd lose control and I'd wake up the next morning not remembering anything then inly to hear my friends are upset with me for what I said or did, or waking up in hospital after a "friend" jumps me, pins me and bashes my face in with no mercy till I beg. It's not the reminders that make me feel bad when watching this movie... it's the good feeling that I am sober today and I haven't had to get in trouble because I don't want to drink or crave it anymore. A year and close to 4 months soon I am happy to be sober and glad I don't have to go through that horror anymore. I am so happy with life and even though it has had its downs with my breakup almost 3 months ago... I am proud to be sober and alive and well. Thanks SR.com for being here for me, and my family and friends.

I liked "Changing Lanes" Changing Lanes (2002) - IMDb
Showed how my day could go if I hardheadedly insisted on doing it "my way".
All the best.
