I like what Henry David Thoreau says.

Each day Sobriety gives me yet another opportunity to flush all the waste that was in my life into the toilet and bring everything that is sublime out into the open. Basically, my favorite thing about sobriety have been the moments not of spiritual awakening, but of spiritual bowel movement.

Waking up feeling good.

No guilt.

No fear of drunk driving accidents.

Get along great with my kids now.

Take better care of my dogs.

No more waking up in the throes of withdrawal.

Got my self respect back.

for the last four years I thought I had a major acid reflux problem. eating 15 tums a day this last year. this problem disappeared completely by day 3. unbelievable. it was a nice surprise and something that helps make my resolve stronger.

I forgot to mention the anxiety. WOW. so much better. every morning i would have pretty crazy anxiety. so uncomfortable in my skin. i still have some, cause i have a lot going on in my personal life right now, but it has eased up so much. plus its nice to deal with said anxiety in a HEALTHY way

Grateful for the hangover free mornings.
Grateful to be able to cover shifts on next to no notice for sick coworkers.
Grateful that the madness and depression has stopped.
