Positive thoughts

I feel so much more free lately. I haven’t drank since the 21st of July. I am over 3 months sober. I hardly think about it these days. I never thought I could do it again. I left my job and started my recovery months ago and I haven’t been out of work this long. It’s been hard but also was a much needed break. Then, I’ve been single for the first time in so many years. The heart ache I felt from my past is gone. I feel free. I am almost 29 years old and I feel like I have a chance to be happy. I really want to go back to college and focus on my happy story.

Mate seriously. You have every chance of happiness. Youve made a real tough and brave move kicking a really difficult habit. Honestly so much respect to you. Life feels dull after addiction for a while but thats your old minset trying to draw you in. The longer you are sober the more your neural pathways repair and time really does heal in this case. I admire you sharing something deep and real at your age. Now take life on and get everything positive you can from it. You have every chance. I truly wish you well. From 1 ex addict to another.
