6 months ago today since i had my last drink, little did i know i would end up in hospital again for the 2nd time.. I have realised there is more to life than going out and drinking all night into the next day and im feeling the benefits mentally, physically snd financially...
Its been hard at time seeing friends going out and enjoying themselves as there was nothing I enjoyed more than going out for a drink and having a laugh but i am big enough to admit that i cannot trust myself to go out for 1 or 2 drinks without being out until the next day..
The worst bit for me was trying to break the habit of going out every weekend, once you realise you aren’t missing anything at all you will slowly start to see the benefits from it.. i am up and about at this time on a Sunday morning when id normally just be coming home..
If theres one thing i can say to people there is definitely more to life than drink and going out every weekend, 6 months later i am feeling the best i have felt in over 5 years, long may it continue 😀
