Finally made it 365 days
Hii!
I have been attempting to be completely sober since the fall of 2023 and I have had a few slips ups since, and last summer had my worst slip up. It was incredibly dangerous and impromptu and I hold a lot of shame around it. BUT as of today, I am a full year sober. :)
I am a pretty alone person and those who know about my sobriety and addiction don't know the full story of my slips, so no one knows that this day is so monumental for me. Yesterday was really hard. Holidays for me are the worst because I feel more alone than ever. It feels like everyone is with family or friends and I am never apart of it. My closest friends are with other people and it hurts... i cried a lot about being alone and about not wanting to be, and I cried a lot about being sober and not wanting to be. However, right now in this moment I am allowing myself to be proud and I am so grateful I did not give in and that I can say I am 1 year stone cold sober!!!!!
Thanks for anyone who has read this ramble, wishing everyone the very best. 🖤
