Iāll never ever forget the time that I heard a friend tell another āDude. Sometimes you just have to ride it out.ā In that particular instance, he was talking about a ādry-goodā (aka – drug) because he knew that the only thing that would make that situation better was time. Triggers come and go. FeelingsContinue reading “Ride On, Ladies”

Reinvention Time
Itās all about the evolution, ladies. A ton of us started drinking during our formative teenage years. I think thatās when many normies learn who they are and who they want to become. I sure didnāt. But who I was was decided for me by my behaviors. So if Iām going to be the crazyContinue reading “Reinvention Time”

It happens. But it doesnāt mean that everything youāve learned about your drinking just disappears. One time I less than half ass tried to quit. So instead of doing something I knew I couldnāt or didnāt want to I kept drinking for another 15 years or so. And knew I didnāt want to AS IContinue reading “Chill”
Life After Death
We did survive. Just barely. We didnāt thrive though. At.All. The never ending purgatory of feeling horrid when I woke up, to the inevitable anxiety and to top it off?! The guilt that I was going to do it again. That same day. Yes- thereās life after alcohol. And youāll actually remember it. Happy Tuesday,Continue reading “Life After Death”
