“It was almost like my body and mind had desperately wanted to return to normal for years, but alcohol was the thing blocking that. I could almost feel myself in a constant state of catharsis as time went on. My body was breathing again and almost thanking me.”
Thanks for sharing your story Mike. Here’s to depth of thought - that really resonated with me. We truly do re-wire the brain and the sweetest gifts are delivered when we land in situational awareness.
GREAT share, Mike. I deeply admire how you overhauled your entire outlook on life, which I feel is crucial to lasting sobriety. Everything toxic had to go. Not just the substances, but everything that made substances seem a better option. The work you did on yourself has opened up the rest of your life in the most meaningful of ways. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Adam! I think you hit the nail on the head with "everything toxic had to go." THAT. I share your opinions and beliefs on long-lasting sobriety. Make substances/liquids irrelevant, not even a "thing"!
Such an inspiring share, Mike. Your enthusiasm for sobriety and showing up fully for life comes through in your words. Thank you!
Thank you, Dana! 😊
