10 benefits of sobriety
I am the sort of person who needs to make lists of targets to help me keep disciplined.
I wonder if anyone else thinks it would be helpful to list 10 things that they personally feel would be a benefit of staying sober? The list can contain anything that matters to you.
Here's my list...
1) A healthier mind
2) More money
3) A better social life
4) Better relationships with people I love
5) No more indigestion and reflux
6) Repair any liver damage
7) Get my self respect back
8) Be in control of my life
9) Weight loss
10) Less worry about health and finance
I think this will work for me. To achieve all 10 things on my list makes that glass of wine in the back of my mind seem a waste of time.

This one's a biggie for me, no more waking up with that panicked feeling thinking "who did I talk to on the phone last night? Did I get on the computer? What kind of things did I say to my husband?"
One of the worst feelings in the world, for me anyway.
