5 weeks today

[Vomit fox]

Today is 5 weeks sober, and I must say my drug abuse feels like a not so distant memory. I intend to keep it that way! I feel fantastic, im tired from working 12 1/2 hours a day but my money is spent on things I wanted. Trips to the beach, material things, nice dinners and recently direct tv I know now what I didn't then, quitting is doable that I already knew, but being happy with everything that didn't used to make me happy anymore that surprised me the most. I'm not normal by far, but I found out I never was normal, I embrace it now instead of numbing it down. Good luck I wish everyone beautiful and colorful days!

VF that is amazing news! I am so happy for you that it seems almost a distant memory now. Please don't stop letting us know your progress. This is my favorite:

I think we all need to know we're weird and crazy in our own way and just because we don't fit a mold doesn't mean we're a bunch of weirdos.

I used drugs a lot to feel comfortable and social around other people. I've found that the drugs helped for a short while but I became even more withdrawn and alone after a while. It's good to feel comfortable in our own skin.

Muchas love to you!!!
