Almost two years sober

Almost two years sober

It’s insane to look back at old photos of myself when I was at the height of my addiction. I didn’t see or realize how much it had taken a toll on me outwardly. I mean inside I was suffering so much. Top photo is two years ago. My face was so inflamed. Bottom photo is from a few weeks ago, in Nashville. I was able to go out on fucking broadway and managed to annoyingly deal with the party scene without one sip of booze. Don’t get me wrong it was hard but I did it. I’m so proud of the girl in the bottom photo.

This might be silly but my makeup fans might get it

Phoebe always wears the most mesmerizing silver shimmery eyeshadow. I remember she wore it when I saw her live 8 years ago, and she still wears it today. Does anyone know what product it is? I need :’)

MCV levels high

Does anyone else have high MCV levels?
Had never heard of this before, my last blood work panel mine were 103- this can be related to liver and too much alcohol but I’m sober and have been for over a year.

I had my b12, folate, and iron checked and those were all normal too which sometimes can be a culprit.

I read that it can also be related to hypothyroidism though, so wondering if it’s just apart of it?

Is it possible to feel good just with meds?

Lately I feel like trash- and I’m still taking my meds. It’s like it’s not enough anymore. Do I need to go gluten free?

Does hashimotos just flare up sometimes despite consistently taking meds?
