01 What it was like

It was a recurring bad dream that you never remember the next day. It was like drowning in an empty pool.

02 What happened

Couldn't stop once I started. Couldn't remember anything. I started a new job & was missing work from being hungover. I didnt want to lose my job & had gone a week without drinking, next I knew I was coming up on a year & just kept going.

03 What it is like now

Honestly it is still a struggle but only when im very upset about something. I love being sober & how proud I've made myself & my family. I dont ever want to be that way again.
