Happy holidays sober peeps, as I reflect on my first holiday season sober, I’d like to share the power of just “not picking up no matter what”. Yes, I got sober in October three years ago and the holidays came fast, it was a white knuckle experience that first season. The miracle ended up being that I knew I could do the same again. I went to extra meetings, including some online ones. The app in the rooms”” has 24 hour a day online meetings. I surrounded myself with sober friends and took that year off from visiting drinking family events, Truth is, they were ready for a break from me😂. I dove into the steps soon after that first holiday season and I now I’m solidly sober, healthy and able to be present in the holidays. I’m very grateful to not have the obsession, anxiety and the drunkenness that the holidays held pre recovery. Merry Christmas, you are worth sobriety
