Holy shit. How did this happen?
A year ago I Layed on my friends hard wood floor with only a yoga mat and no pillow in an apartment that smelled like a disgusting cat litter box.
I layed there only sitting up to chug more alcohol. Everytime I was finished I would go across the street to the store to buy more. I would also use the bathroom, and then I would lay back down and keep drinking.
I didn’t shower, eat a thing, drink water or brush my teeth for 7 days.
I’m not sure what happened on that 7th day but I snapped and I decided I couldn’t just slowly die like that. Somehow I gave myself a 2nd Chance.
It has not been all sunshine and rainbows… it has been incredibly hard! I drank for so long to forget and then was continuously blacked out there is so much memory loss to my story, so now I’m sobriety those thoughts and memories of trauma have bubbles up and it hasn’t always been pleasant but my goodness I would take that any day over the former. I now shower everyday, have a doctor, therapist, my own beautiful comfy room that is a safe space, I eat more food than I can think about, I have enough money to pay my rent and buy things I want, I am taking my health into my own hands, i have friends that care about me, I have a crush on a guy ( something I didn’t think possible after my ex! )
I go to yoga, I go to the gym, I meditate! I hit meetings!
I’m sharper than ever. I remember things, I’m funny. I dress better now that I’m not a slob. I have clean clothes. I set boundaries with peiple. I stand up for myself.
I can barely believe it.
I’m not sure how I want to celebrate just yet. But definitely getting a piece of cake or something 
Congratulations with your 1 year of sobriety!

I’d say cake, nice big chocolate cake!
