If I had of known my life would be this great, it wouldn’t of taken me so long to get here.
I thought my life was great when I drank. I could really open up and talk, get things off my mind. I know now that noone was listening.
I thought I had it all, I know now that I had nothing.
I thought my children were fine, I know now they were hurting.
I thought I looked great, I know now that I looked my worst.
I thought I was a good role model, I know now that I was no model at all.
I thought I would die, I know now I am so alive.
This Is, Being Me Sober
Published by beingmesober
I'm finally sober! My life up until I really got sober was in one word, chaotic! I didn't know what stability was. To top off my mess of a childhood, I went straight into a marriage with more abuse and alcoholism. But, what I have today is who I am, who I've become, I am with an amazing (new) husband, we have 4 kids and our fur-baby.
It has not been an easy road but I can say it was worth every fight and tear it took to get me here.
Sharing my journey with you and my past is not to display it all over the place but to help someone relate to what has happened and where my mind has been while I was drinking and where it is today. Its to give insight to those suffering that if you just keep fighting you can really have the best life you were meant to have.
Let's do this!

So glad to read this post of yours. Sometimes it does take time to realise what we wanted to become without our knowing.
