Day 153.
This ain’t easy.
Just because I’m sober don’t mean the fight is over.
I still catch myself reacting with old habits—
quick anger, impulsive moves, letting emotions lead the way.
That’s the part nobody tells you about:
You can put the bottle down…
but the behavior? That takes work.
Some days, my addiction don’t come in the form of a drink—
it shows up in how I talk, how I think,
how I try to escape instead of feel.
But I remind myself:
A feeling is not a fact.
And a bad moment doesn’t have to turn into a bad decision.
I’m learning to breathe.
To pause.
To protect my peace.
Because one reaction can cost me everything I’ve worked for.
I’m 153 days in.
Still healing.
Still learning.
Still choosing not to go back.
If you’re in the fight too, stay with me.
We’re not perfect—but we’re growing.
One decision at a time.
