I haven’t written in a while because I’ve been so busy with work, wedding planning and raising a new puppy.
However whilst sat here in my office printing paperwork it suddenly occurred to me that I really have turned my life around… I truly have.
It almost doesn’t seem real to think that 4 years ago I was under monitoring from a mental health team as a result of harm I was causing myself physically and mentally. My family had pretty much cut me off, I had no job, no access to money as my accounts had been frozen and had no desire to continue living.
And here I am now, writing this whilst at work. Employed in a field I love and excelling professionally. I’m a homeowner in a beautiful part of the country, I have no money worries, I’m getting married in 6 weeks and am finally living a life I never knew existed for me.
It really does get better!
Sobriety and Me
