Day 7 of sobriety
I am at day 7 of sobriety, which I have not been at in at least over a year. I have had substance abuse issues since I was 14 (14 years ago) and the longest streak I have historically is one 10 day streak before to put it into perspective. I feel a lot better, I’m sleeping better, and actually feel like I want to get out of bed in the morning. I know I’m in early stages here, and I hope I can keep it up, but as someone who has always thought I needed substances to feel and express my emotions after childhood trauma I feel proud! I will say mentally it’s been pretty hard, it’s harder to push thoughts away but I think it will maybe get better. I hope everyone has a good day, and that you are treating yourself kindly. 💚
