Hey there. Started this journey of being sober because I realized how much I consumed alcohol and didn’t realize how much damage it has been doing me. I broke up with my ex in March and since then, have been drinking because he pressured me into it a lot back when we dated and just became “used to it”. It started making me tired a lot lately and just pass out a lot at home without me knowing. It scared me enough, so I’ve decided to quit drinking. Tomorrow will mark 10 days sober and couldn’t be happier.
I have my new dream job that I don’t want to lose, and my new place by myself and feeling super independent and accomplished. Social events will be the hardest for me, but I don’t want to lose the relationships I have. Going to the gym every day has been helping me as well as staying busy. Sobriety has been great so far and eager to keep this going.
I’m glad you’ve found yourself in a great place and that you are working to keep it. You can do it!
