No more alcohol...

I will stop drinking.

I don't get hung over, I feel depressed.

I don't get headaches, I cry.

I don't want to be sick, I don't want to get out of bed.

Why did I start because I met someone who made me feel happy and safe and it lulled me into a false sense of mental security.

I can't handle alcohol even if it's only 2 units a month.

And today is the day I return to a sober life.

I was an addict for 11 years. Let me tell you even now its hard. Adapting to what seems like monotony in the ' straight life' is hard. But when any substance makes you depressed. And they will. Then its time to keep up the fight to stay away from anything dodgy like drink or drugs and especially the usual catalyst for those issues. Lifes traumas. Well in most cases anyway. I wish you well. Stay strong.
