And the Countdown begins.......In 7 days I am going to making some drastic and needed changes from the lifestyle I have been living for almost two decades. A life of sobriety...A life of good choices...A life worth living... Cause even though I'm a functioning addict, things have spiraled out of control....Again. So this time, instead of doing things my way ( which haven't worked out the best lol) I am going to start listening to others that have taken this journey already and continue to live a fulfilling and sober life. And that starts with better lifestyle choice; Exercising, eating better, becoming more active with hobbies. Basically the complete opposite of what I am doing now. Over the next week I will let you know a little bit more about myself and my past and when the time comes I'll be sharing what I am doing, how I am feeling and my thoughts and emotions of this "new way of life" and the struggles that I already know are to come. I have tried to get sober many times in the past, but I always end up back in the same spot. This time I am finally at my wits end. It's time to try out someone else's way before I lose what I have left. If you're going thru this yourself you know the feeling and I hope you join me on this road thru recovery. It always helps to have someone to talk to and share with about what's going on and what is working for you and what isn't. And if you have any POSITIVE comments, questions, or feedback about your own journey, please feel free to post. This isn't something (as I have learned) that can be done by yourself. Anything and everything can be helpful.

Anyways, that's enough for today. Check back tomorrow and I'll let you know a little more about myself and how I got to where I am today

Take care and good luck to all of us still struggling
