Good morning fellow sober peeps! Just here thinking wow 850 days sober today. Remembering i use to be sober only 3 day’s or 3 days of recovering from massive hangover once that was gone, i was out again drinking partying… just to do it all over again. I started drinking heavy when i was 23 until i was 34! I started my recovery journey in 2021. I had 2 bad relapes but i manage to pull myself out. During my addiction i lost so much. The one thing that hurts the most is i see i lost a chance to be a mother to my 3 kids. Which now are 18, 20 and 23. I see they only see what i was in my past. I may have traumatized them and neglected their childhood. My mother was the one who supported and raised them while i just ran around and drank. Its hard for me to accept this… but im still sober today, and still moving forward. I am now 40 years old my journey doesnt end here…
850 days! That is so lovely! And such an inspiration to others like me. One day your children will see you for what you are now. A brave and tender person who managed to beat addiction and build a better life.
That’s right Crystal-- and way to go with your 850 days!! that is some badass shit ! Keep this amazing journey going.
Thanks! Soberity is definitely worth it!
Absolutely!! We can’t change our past, but we can make today one we’re proud of. You have a lot to be proud of and hopefully in time things will heal in your family. Congratulations on your 850 days, that is some solid work.
