I still can't believe it.....
Every.Single.Day. for thousands of consecutive days, I felt like absolute garbage, my mind was perpetually heavy.
I feel like a completely different person mentally, so much more stability, it feels so surreal still. Like, this was the person I was supposed to be the entire time, not someone whose mind felt anchored down by a heavy weight.
And this just happened recently, like, I'm so not used to feeling like this at all, I'm just soaking it in, baffled at how calm my mind feels.
And if this suddenly just happened, I can only imagine that every day will be a huge improvement to my mood.
Gosh damnit, how could I have been so blind...I seriously could have saved myself years of misery if I stopped earlier..........For anyone else fresh on the band wagon, try your hardest to stay sober, if you relapse, hop right back on and try your hardest every time
. I was sober for atleast 96-97% of the days in 2015, and it was enough to heal my mind. I crossed over back into normalcy.
Give it atleast a year of sobriety, I'm still in awe.

It great that you are feeling that way OE. Sounds like you are living you life now which is what you are supposed to be doing. You don't need to tell you that the 3-4% of drinking days is a banana skin that would are walking on so please thread very carefully.
