Being Alcohol is a journey, not a destination. It is a daily commitment to living life without alcohol or drugs. It is a process of healing and growth.

My sobriety journey began on 11/01/2020. I had been struggling with alcohol addiction for many years. It had taken a toll on my health, my relationships, and my career. I knew that I needed to make a change.

I decided to take a month off originally as a cleanse/break It was the hardest thing I have ever done, but it was also the best decision I have ever made. By the end of that month I decided to end the year of right and by the end of that month I decided to start the year off right.  In my recovery, I learned about addiction and the recovery process. I also developed a strong support network of other people who were in recovery.

 I continued to work on my sobriety. I went , attended support groups, and read books and articles about recovery. I also started to make changes to my lifestyle. I started exercising, eating healthier, and getting more sleep.

Sober living has been a challenge, but it has also been incredibly rewarding. I am now healthier, happier, and more productive than I have ever been. I have strong relationships with my family and friends. I have a successful career. And I am no longer a slave to addiction.

Here are two examples of how my sobriety has improved my life:

• My relationships have improved. When I was drinking, I was often irritable and argumentative. I would say and do things that I regretted. Since I have gotten sober, my relationships have improved dramatically. I am now able to communicate more effectively and resolve conflict in a healthy way.

• My health has improved. Drinking was taking a toll on my physical and mental health. I had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and a fatty liver. I was also depressed and anxious. Since I have gotten sober, my health has improved significantly. My blood pressure and cholesterol levels have gone down. I have lost weight and feel more energetic. And my depression and anxiety have disappeared.

If you are struggling with addiction, I encourage you to seek help. There are many resources available to help you on your journey to sobriety. Remember, you are not alone.

Additional examples

Here are two additional examples of how sobriety can improve your life:

• Your finances can improve. Alcohol and drugs can be expensive, and addiction can lead to financial problems. When you get sober, you can save money on your addiction and use that money to improve your financial situation.

• Your career can improve. Alcohol and drug addiction can lead to missed work, poor performance, and even job loss. When you get sober, you can improve your career prospects by being more reliable and productive at work.

Sobriety is a journey, but it is a journey that is worth taking. If you are struggling with addiction, please reach out for help. There are many people who care about you and want to see you succeed. As
