Day 4 Sober October
Read more: Day 4 Sober OctoberPeople used to beg me to stop drinking. They just couldn’t understand how someone could keep doing the same things with consequences that got worse and worse over the years. Every time anyone mentioned my drinking, a seed was planted. But I know one thing for sure – when they told me I LOOKED LIKE…

Demonic Alcohol
Read more: Demonic AlcoholSome say drunk words are sober thoughts. Mine weren’t. I don’t know who that person was but it wasn’t pretty. And I said it all. Did it all. Didn’t remember it all.

Bye Bye Barriers
