What it was like?

I was miserable in my own skin. I drank to feel better, be prettier, smarter, to fit in, to sleep. You name it, and I drank.

What happened?

I woke up in a ditch just wanting a God that I didn’t believe in to take me. I was tired of living the life of misery. I found my was to a sober persons house and I’ve been sober since.

What it is like now?

Sobriety can be trying at times, but I’m here to tell you, it’s worth it! I have learned to love myself and others. I can finally see my worth in this chaotic world! One day at a time, I can help myself and others!
