Day 554 Clean & Sober

Good morning!  My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  This quote perfectly defines my life.  I love it!  I started out partying for the fun of it.  For years, I would just party on the weekends, I would just do it when I wanted to it.  Then it became routine, every weekend. Every weekend, slowly turned to a couple days in the middle of the week too.  Soon I was drinking every day. Routine turned to necessity, I not only wanted to drink every day, I needed to.  I was shaking so bad, I thought I would have a seizure if I didn't,  I would get so anxious, and have panic attacks.  It was pathetic. I then got into recovery out of necessity.  I now go to meetings on a commited basis.  I go to meetings every Wednesday and Sunday, and then since we have someone else staying with us, I have been going more than that.  It is now habit.  Today, I live sober because I want to, not because I have to.  Not because anyone is making me.  I love my life today.  I love being able to spend time with my family and remember it. I love not feeilng sick all the time. I love going to family functions and things.  That's all I have for today.  Have a great one!
