Sidetracked.

Long story short, I blew it, I relapsed, I was sober for 18 months then one day the voice got to me and I spent another 18 months thinking I could be normal, last weekend was a wakeup call, I was chasing a buzz that doesnt exist.

Day 3 again, I was absent here for a long time, now Im back, I went back and read my posts and I was much happier not drinking, theres alot more positives for me not drinking, I know that.

I texted my cousin, whos in the same boat, Monday, Day 1 was the message, he replied wow what a coincidence same here. Yesterday he texted day 2 now what do we do ? I replied figure out what to do with all this extra happiness.
Im back on track and feeling better already.

The plan is to get back on the old plan, it was working. I think keeping a journal and writing it regularly helps, rereading the one I had and rereading my posts here I realized my whole way of life was more enjoyable.

I also know giving in to the voice can lead to a long time of un-happiness, one drink can turn into thousands quickly.

A wise man (Ferris Buler) once said, life comes at you pretty fast, if you dont stop and look around , you might miss it.
