...See more New here! 👋 One month and one day sober! 🎉🥳 I’m not really looking for anything specific here—just a place where I can come, meet people, hear your stories, see what everyone else is up to, and hopefully steal a few good ideas on how to survive this crazy ride I’ve signed myself up for. 😂 I’m not going to lie…this has been HARD. Like, REALLY hard. 😅 Sobriety is definitely not the magical “I stopped drinking and suddenly everything is wonderful” experience I was hoping for. 😂 There have been stressful days, emotional days, frustrating days, and plenty of moments where my brain has apparently decided to hold a full-blown argument with me about why this was such a good idea. 🤦‍♀️🤣 But here I am—31 days sober. One day at a time, because apparently trying to think about doing this forever is enough to make my brain run for the hills. 😂 I’m learning, growing, messing up, figuring things out, and trying to become a better version of myself along the way. I know I still have a LONG road ahead of me, but for the first time in a long time, I’m actually walking it sober. So if you see me around, say hi! I’m here to listen, learn, laugh when I can, and hopefully remind myself that I’m not the only person who sometimes looks at sobriety and thinks, “Okay…whose bright idea was THIS?” 😂 One day at a time. ❤️
