Today is a very exciting day for me
On my sober journey I’ve begun to take care of all the things I’ve neglected with my mind body and soul… So things like my teeth, my nutrition health, my fitness, showing up for my spiritual self daily, my finances, my mental health etc etc…
Now today is a new step in an exciting direction in my self care journey.
With using meth for 10 years, the effects definetly do show on my face, in comparison to my appearance a few years ago, the last few years have taken its toll and I don’t look as fresh and youthful as I did a few years ago. I know for 41 years old, I could look worse, but the years are showing now and gravity is taking over.
Also with putting on a lot of weight from getting clean, the weight has gone to my face and its visible in an uncomfortable way for me. Its made my face age a bit more than I’d like at this point…
Soooo, today for the first time ever, I have my appointment to get a bit of fillers and botox !!
Its something I’ve been thinking about for a while now and I’ve come to the conclusion that now I’m 41 years old, gravity will take its course from here on out, so its time to get ahead of it and fix my face so I can hold onto my youthful glow while I still have it
I’m also very proud of myself for saving up enough money to get these done today. Its a huge achievement for me to accomplish, saving money regularly every payday.
I have had cash money sitting in a bank account day after day after day now for a while, and the addict in me has been so well behaved and responsible that I didn’t once cave in and go use that money for evil…
There comes a point in your sober journey where you realise that you really do like you, you actually like yourself, you like how you look regardless of the drug abuse you put your body through… And one day you have a realisation that you want to really look after this temple of a human body … So you start investing in you
