Thanks for sharing your story! I stopped drinking nearly four months ago and have been enjoying it. Might have a drink in the future but for now I feel way better and have saved a ton.
Wow Becca ♥️ I am so incredibly happy this showed up on my feed. I stopped drinking at the end of December after watching two people in my family in serious addiction. While I, like you, didn’t have “problem” and wasn’t drinking more than “normal,” I felt that there was some fully embodied ME that I simply couldn’t find and accept while drinking. I’ve been writing about it for months, but your story cut right through to exactly what I was feeling every time I drank one too many — “I am not somebody I can trust.”
Thank you so much for such a kind comment! It's hard explaining to certain people that not drinking isn't something you do ONLY if you're a rock bottom, sometime it's actually preventative from stopping things becoming worse further down the line. Can't wait to read your work xx
Congrats on your journey! It's not an easy path but very rewarding. I've also tried, haven't succeeded yet, but respect people who have. Life is better with little (or zero) alcohol. You remember more too!
