ONE WHOLE YEAR ~ ~ one whole year of relearning who I am without the giant crutch I was hauling around ~ one year of constantly fighting demons that no one else can see without that same crutch I used to silence them ~ one whole year of discovering the ones who truly care and are there for me ~ one whole year of saying goodbye, to my past, to the friends I used to have, and to the person I became who I never thought I’d be My drinking was toxic. My drinking hurt people I never would’ve dreamed of hurting sober. My drinking made me small, weak, unable to fight my own battles so I’d just open another bottle instead. My drinking made me sick, to the core. It changed who I was, it changed what was important to me. This has been the easiest, hardest, scariest, most beautiful experience of my life, and I’m 100% here for it. Shout out to my pops who even though he isn’t here anymore, I know the strength I’ve shown has so much to do with him. Shoutout to my friends who stuck around, my family who I would be nothing without, and my girlfriend, who is new to this battle with me but geared up for war by my side anyway. Recognize the people who love you and never let them go. One. Whole. Year. Here’s to many, many more. #sobriety #365dayssober #sobrietyisbeautiful #youarestrongerthanyouthink https://www.instagram.com/p/CHDLg0CBT2lrngTUtx2bmzNXqFmmkr4Hsyu6IM0/?igshid=7v41a057ki7j -- source link
