I have been away for a few weeks now and haven't been able to post during that time. I promised a member on this board that I would keep them posted on my recovery...It's been 3 weeks and 4 days without a drink and I feel great! It's funny because when you are drinking it feels like you are doing yourself a favor by getting drunk and numbing yourself. Sometimes I would look in the mirror and see someone who didn't look like a drunk because I would look normal. Then there were days I looked horrible and I would play as if I were sick to make people look the other way. I spent my day thinking about the next time I would drink even though I had a hangover. I really didn't have time to take care of anything else but my obsession with alcohol.
that sucks and I'm not going back
I ran yesterday morning at 8 am after taking my daughter to school. I have kept up with my home and I even went out of my way for myself on several occasions in this three weeks by taking care of my body, spirit, and mind.
alcohol takes away me and i'm not going back.
I have much to do for God and he is going to take care of me just if I take care of me too. Everything that is me goes away when I drink...why would I ever want that?
To All
