First time being sober in 7 years. The hardest habit to kick after letting it become apart of every minute of every day. Gotta admit feels like I’m losing a friend who always made me feel better and forget about the hardest things in life, but it’s good it’s feels like that instead of feeling like I’ve lost part of myself. I used to parade it around like it was apart of my personality when in reality substance abuse shouldn’t be a badge of pride or one of the first things to admit thinking it makes you different. Being the healthiest version of myself is a badge in itself.
