2 Years Sober 5.11.25
Pretty bloody proud of myself.
The perspective shifts getting sober gave me didn't just change my relationship with alcohol but my relationship with myself, people around me, my past, my compound grief and thankfully my future.
Going from a daily drinker to cold turkey sober is not for the faint hearted. I now have to sit with every single emotion that comes up, feel it, reflect on it, ask where it's came from, is it still serving me, if not it goes.
I was still using food to avoid big emotions until I recently did a 35 day fast (after the caffeine withdrawal day 3-4 it was surprisingly easy!).
A huge GRATITUDE shout out to
I listened to their podcasts daily, read their books, followed their every post. My virtual AA if you will. Thankyou all for the beautiful work you do.🙏💜
was also a big inspiration to me too.😘
One of the most surprising things that getting sober taught me is that for the years I tried to moderate with the story in my head that I'd be missing out on so much if I quit drinking is that Ive gained soooo much more than I "lost".
You know when you see someone who wear glasses and their glasses are cloudy but they can't see how dirty they are, that's how I feel looking back at my past self, I couldn't see how clouded I was.
If you are questioning your relationship with alcohol all the women above are fantastic resources as well as .
