When I think about the version of myself that was not sober, I cannot help but cringe. I was the worst version of myself when I would drink. I used alcohol as my coping mechanism from past trauma & in the process abused alcohol & endured new trauma.

🌈

It took many tries & numerous rock bottom stories to finally decide to remain sober. 26 months was the longest timeframe I went alcohol free until I caved into my cravings & after a few months of hang overs I decided to start my sobriety journey over. Finding a community has made the world of a difference with my sobriety & I now celebrate 27 months sober & counting in an imperfect but more wholesome life.
