~2 years of alcoholism, Feb 2026 [34].
1.5 months sober, March 2026 [34].
2.5 months sober, April 2026 [34].
The lighting and angles aren't exactly the same, but I think it shows how much my face has changed in such a short time.
At the beginning of this year, I was drinking ~1 handle of corn vodka a day and couldn't imagine another way of living. Looking back, that person's a stranger to me.
When I was in the depths of alcoholism, I reached out to a bud who I knew was sober.
Her response was this:
"Sometimes you gotta do whatever it takes to get by. Don't judge yourself for it. Just trust that this isn't forever bc eventually, you're gonna get bored and start clawing for your life again."
So thankful she was right
