I’m finally doing it
7 days! Wow! I'm 28F, and the longest amount of time i've managed to go sober in the last 7 years was for about 8 months. This year, especially the last few months, has been one of the worst years of my life. I drank so much it almost cost me my job and my life, but managed to make it to the hospital to detox safely. It's been a really hard 7 days.. My friends and family don't really talk to me anymore or just straight up have me blocked. I understand I might have done or said things that were wrong of me to do/say, however even though i'm getting better now finally, things will never go back to the way they were before. Even with little to no support i'm proud i'm finally making the right choice to quit before it actually kills me. I just wish my family or at least my friends showed some type of support or at least an i'm proud of you moment.. something. Either way even though it hurts, at the end of the day im doing this for myself, not them.
Anyone out there that feels like me or like you don't have support, if you're reading this, don't be afraid to reach out. We might be strangers, but we're all fighting this battle together. Best of luck and wishes to you all. Just remember you are loved and you got this 🫶🏻
