So I know how this goes the first two weeks are the easiest for me, I have done this too many times to count. One thing I know I will not miss the three day hangovers. UGH. The last hangover I had a week ago I was not myself for three days and let me tell you I have to be busy all the time and I don’t like staying in one place too long. So to not have energy for three days is a killer for me.
A few years ago I would drink Vodka a lot, in the winter it would be White Russians and in the summertime vodka and lemonade. But let me tell you the pain I went through the next day was unbearable I’m surprised I survived those times. I would honestly puke my guts out every 20 minutes for hours and hours sometimes up to 12 hours. I would be so thirsty and every time I would drink something it would come right back up. You would think someone would quit forever after going through that. Not worth the pain! I guess it was for me. It felt so good to be sober. I was on top of the world. But it never lasted long.
I’ve called into work so many times and lied about why I couldn’t come in. I’ve lost so many jobs and opportunities that I lost count. Not to mention my criminal record ALL has to do with drinking.
I have prayed so many times to be sober. And I hope this is a new chapter of my life that I can finally be free. What ever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. I believe that.
