    You are so brave for sharing. As with any addiction, it’s a daily act of choosing not to, just like you said. It helps to think of the reward - of being more of you, authentically, inherently, radiantly you without that drink/food/drug/shopping etc. It’s not a sacrifice, it’s a choice to be a brighter and truer presence in the world that desperately needs us to wake up to our true ‘un-numbed’ nature! Thank you for all you do. Rooting for you🌺

    Thanks for sharing your story❤ I'm the same, one glass of anything, and bye to my self, and I hate that sensation of losing control, because most of my memories are of things that I would never choose or do being sober, it's like two personalities😅 and the worst to me it's the depression next day, the dark thoughts and like you feeling back to zero😅 but now I'm 100 days sober, and I'm like a hermit building my new lifestyle, and knowing that I cannot live my life with alcohol, never, its like a poison to my brain and my sensitivity so I choose to be me again, and not playing that game of triying to control alcohol, cause I always lose (for me)😊 thanks for all of your tips, and everything, so helpful ❤ you have a new friend from Spain to do healthy but funny stuff, cause we are alive, so we have to enjoy another things 😊

    I worked in a Rehab for a year as night staff, and have had the issue of my own with the booze. I socially drink now but, as always, self awareness and listening to your body is the key. I NEVER drink Spirits, very little wine, but like a couple of beers or a cider- there is a joy in life through the fellowship of the alehouse and the cultural aspect of alcohol. If you can take it or leave it you're ok. But thank you for sharing your story and what works for you, it all helps someone somewhere.

    I find since losing my partner I’m drinking more and I can’t remember things the next day which gives me lots of anxiety. The majority of my social life involves alcohol so I need to find new things to do. It’s hard to give up the fun more than the drink. My partner was an alcoholic and I didn’t drink for long periods because I obviously was trying to help him not to drink. I know therefore that I can do it but my heart is so broken I’m scared of not having the fun escape as it’s sometimes the only time I’m free. I do need to try though as the anxiety hurts too. Thanks for your honesty ❤x

      It must be so hard to be going through this loss. I'm very sorry you are in this difficult moment. I'm glad you found this video. There's a lot of other ways to find fun or the escape you need, ways that don't hurt your health or how you view yourself. I hope you find those ways, and the people and resources that can help you. You are not alone. Take care :)
