A friend texted me for a few drinks tonight at fucking 8,30... I said no, I've told him many times I quit, he won't listen. He doesn't want to address his own problem and I really don't feel strong enough to help him. It may be selfish, but he can get me very close to drinking.

I did it.
24 hours without a smoke. This is fucking hard. I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, I can’t read, I can’t write, I can’t stand music, voices, human life. I’m angry at the world, I can’t disassociate from my addictive voice…
but I made it and I feel like fucking super woman

A new neighbor came by this afternoon and gave me a wine bottle as a Christmas gift. I forgot about it until 10 minutes ago, when my addiction went wild: "open it, nobody will know, you're done with work, celebrate, Christmas..."
I just flushed it down the toilet. I'm shaking.

Good morning. Not much more to say, as I feel really sad and empty. Didn’t drink though, but I confess I was so closed to doing so last night, and I felt so broken, that I don’t have the smallest feeling of pride or anything. Just feeling terribly empty and sad.

Tomorrow I will be 6 months sober. To celebrate it, I took the day off tomorrow, and I’m leaving tonight to a house I’ve rented in the middle of the woods with a pool and I’ll take a break from my phone. Just me, water, fresh air and lots of reading.
Take care and don’t drink ✌🏼

Finally home and sober from a Christmas party at a very good friend’s house. No one offered me alcohol, no one asked me why I don’t drink, I had an amazing time and now I can’t feel my feet from so much dancing.

A year ago today I spent the whole afternoon drinking non-stop until I fell into bed unconscious, like so many nights for too many years.
I was so sad, I felt so empty... and everything hurt. I was scared to breathe. I had no hope.
But that's over. Because I haven't drunk again.

I’m 400 days sober today.
It took me 2 years of relapsing, so never stop trying because if I can, so can you.
Alcohol, cocaine, marihuana, MDMA… are part of the past. Now I enjoy my own company and my life is getting better in so many ways…

Last night a fake friend called & texted me a 100 times. He knows I’m sober but gives a fuck. He wanted to sit by someone to drink and do cocaine with, but a plant would’ve done the job. Didn’t answer him until now. Told him I’m blocking him on the phone.

I’m a little frightened about being 1 year sober. I don’t want to get too hyper about it and I know me.
