2 months, 4 days

Hi, everyone! I am new here.

In 2017, I almost died in the ICU because I drank so much. If I hadn’t been found that day, I wouldn’t be here. Unfortunately, this wasn’t enough for me to realize I had a problem. It wasn’t until June of 2019 that I had my last drink. I was sober for 4 years until I decided maybe I would be okay, drinking small amounts here and there. I was wrong. I was in an abusive relationship at the time, and in an attempt to cope with that, I was drinking vodka heavily, every single day.

I am proud to say that I got out of that situation and have not had a drink since July 15th. :heart:
