Alcohol

[Tamka39]

My story in 2016 I remember it was almost thanksgiving and that’s was the beginning of my nightmare because I use to drink so much alcohol daily and I thought it made me happy because I was able to go do whatever I wanted to do without any fear and me doing me not even thinking about how I really was looking like a crazy drunk to my kids and mom and family and friends but it didn’t make me stop made me want more because I didn’t think I had a problem so I continue doing what I thought was helping me to live my life to the fullest was actually killing me slowly and making all my mental illness worse made me out of a bad person and made me very sick I was struck in a dark room lying in bed scared to eat drink or sleep I thought my only option was suicide I didn’t see no other way out the darkness I was in and today am very blessed I didn’t choose deaf I choose to live it was hard and all that time I didn’t even know I really could had died because I was withdrawing from alcohol and didn’t even know it at the time so happy for this app and all the wonderful people I get to talk too so I don’t have to always be in my own head all the time I appreciate y’all thanks 🙏🏾

How have you been feeling recently?

I find that it depends on the day. Some days are great and some days are a lot harder. How has your body been reacting to you giving up alcohol?

I think my body still going through withdrawals but is going on 3 weeks tomorrow but I use to self medicate for years and drink everyday so I think is going to take some time before my body fully heals
