From people who came through it
“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. Routine saved me. Same time up, same walk, same tea. Go slowly. God willing it gets easier.”
Seamstress in Newcastle · been through alcohol recovery“Please be gentel with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. What helped me was writing everything down before appointments, otherwise I forget it all. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
seedrain · been through alcohol recovery“If you're scared right now, I get it. Two years ago, that was me. The worst part was work drinks and saying no. I wake up most days without that dread. It changes. It really does. Sending love.”
Thanh from Can Tho · been through alcohol recovery“Hi, you. A year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. It was the bottle bank shame and I couldn't see past it. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Hang on.”
