I’m seven months sober today!! I’m just… so incredibly proud of myself :face_holding_back_tears: I’ve fought so hard for this and it feels so good to just sit back and look at all my progress today. I’ve made incredible strides with my mental health, working through trauma, self confidence, taking better care of myself… I’ve been able to feel true joy for the first time in years. obviously, I can feel a full range of emotions now, so there have been harder moments, too. It isn’t all sunshine and butterflies. But even when I’m sad, I can’t help but think “how lucky am I to be able to feel this many emotions again?” When I think back to my years I spent using, they’re black and white, compared to now. I just wanted to make a post expressing how grateful I am to be here :heart:

Thanks if you read this!:heart::heart:
