Good afternoon! My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. Going through what I went through was definitely difficult. But it has also given me the best days of my life. Yeah, they were hard, but I have learned a lot, and with that I have had the best days of my life recently. Tomorrow, we will be going on a little trip back to the treatment center that helped me get clean and sober. It has been a little over 3 years now, and I have gone back every year now. It reminds me where I was, how bad I was, and where I am today. Now don't get me wrong, there are still bad days, hard days, but definitely not like they were before. My worst day sober is always better than my best day drunk or high. No doubt! I don't ever want to go back to that life. I am just blessed that I get the opportunity to show my family where I started my journey of sobriety, and spend a little time in the sun while I am at it. :) That's all I have for today. Have a great one! Don't forget to sign up for the book drawing. And if you want to help out with the site and publication costs for my next book, go to the donation page. Thanks so much!

Hello, Lauren! You are stronger than you think you are. You just have to encourage yourself that you can get through with it. I don't know how it feels to be an alcoholic because I don't even drink when I was young. Perhaps, it gives you a very satisfying feeling that's why you got addicted to it. But there is no reason to look at the past because you have decided to move forward since you found the light. Lauren, I am sure that you'll get through it! What's important is you have your ways on finding your better version!
