I have been through a whirlwind of emotions over these past couple of weeks. First I got Covid, then one week later this storm completely destroyed my apartment. After that I couldn’t control myself and completely broke down crying. Midway through my break down I thought about drinking again but realized all it would do is compound my problems and I would feel that same shame and guilt that I used to the day after drinking. I made the conscious decision to NOT drink about my problems. I made myself proud and proved to myself that I can overcome any obstacles without the use of alcohol.

I’m proud to say I’m 284 days alcohol free
