Five months - then and now

So, I went to the candy store today. I found myself exchanging pleasantries with people. Just chatting about chocolate and life and smiling. Past tense, I would have been a quiet shopper- not wanting to be noticed or engaged. But now I’m just kinda living in the moment and liking it :sunglasses::+1:t2:

It’s so amazing how much we change and grow! I was in a spiritual and emotional coma for a very long time! I can completely relate to you Cathy!

That’s awesome. I love talking to people. Before in my addiction I was always shaking so just put my head down got what I needed and left. Now I chat away :rofl::pray::heart:

I know right. People are probably like.

A self induced coma.

I can relate. Sometimes I was so bad my legs were shaking. And I'd get beat red if anyone tried to talk to me especially a cashier. I'm still awkward but it's 100% better than what I was

It’s so great not to be like that anymore and to be able to clearly communicate with people. Keep up the great work. :heart::heart:
