Today I've been sober for a little more than a month, and I feel super energetic and confident. I don't go to AA meetings or anything else of the sort, and I wouldn't even if I could. I don't believe that I need a higher power to help me, nor that addiction is synonymous with illness. I instead like to remind myself that frequent alcohol consumption has changed my brain in very real ways, which leads to what is known as cravings, hence my ability to withstand cravings and control my own behavior is equally real and possible. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day, and that spring will be here before we know it. 🌷

@Blanchy As Barry said "it's amazing how comfortable they are in a bar"
The churches were closed due to the horrid Gov Cuomo we had. Bars could open at 6p (so he could sieze taxes and fines from them). AA groups had few places to congregate so he'd have meetings during the afternoons
