Positive benefit #1051
G'morning all. Something I just wanted to share, because I was feeling grateful for it this morning.

One huge difference I've noticed in sobriety is that the longer I'm sober, the sharper my mind becomes. I'm more articulate, my brain works much more 'efficiently', and everything feels much clearer in my mind.

I didn't realize that for so many years my brain was not working at full capacity, even during short periods of sobriety.

Anyway. I can't wait for it to get better and better.

Yeah, but it's better than the alternative.

I'm anticipating feeling that way... Only five months sober and my heads still pretty fuzzy...
