A couple days ago I was having a bad day and I started writing before bed. I started thinking about good things about the day. Anyway, I wanted to share what I wrote because to me it demonstrates how "The worst day sober is better than the best day drinking/using." That is starting to feel more and more true to me. Even when I'm struggling, I have so much to be proud of and thankful for.

I'm proud that I have become an all-day drinker (seltzer water with lime, that is). I can have it first thing in the morning, can drink all afternoon and have a nice dinner and then drink some more.
