What a difference
31 days ago, I dropped to my knees in my bathroom floor and begged God to help me, change me and take this away. I was tired of drinking and continually drinking more than I had set out to drink. I have not drank since that moment.
It's not been the easiest thing I've ever done, but it is the most rewarding and smart thing I have done.
Fatigue is finally going away for the most part. Energy is returning.
I feel better, anxiety is down 99%.
Relationships are so much better and rewarding. I don't think we realize how rude and grouchy and grim our outlook is while we are so miserable with ourselves. Physically and mentally.
I am becoming me again, learning to be happy with me and relearning fun without alcohol. All activities are better without it, but we convince ourselves there is no fun without it. Drinking stopped being fun long ago, but I've just now realized it.
I do not plan to drink again, ever, but for now, I will not today.
Make the choice, take the leap, you'll not regret it. Never have to regret something you said or did drunk again. Never have 72 hours of potential death due to withdrawal again. But only opportunity to grow and become new again.
I know I'm early on, but I hope to show someone trying to decide, that you can do it and it is worth it.
