Ive been working out for 6 months. I started working out to look better and to start taking better care of myself. About 3 months in I decided to stop drinking. It was clearly effecting my energy levels and consistency.
I was not expecting what came next! Being sober brought lots of emotions out lots of regrets. I started hating my job and hanging out with drunks all day (I was a bartender). I started realizing the pain and disappointment i caused the people I loved. I was really going through it and it showed in my work. I ended up getting fired, and because my housing was tied to my job, being homeless as well.
I decided that moving back home and repairing relationships was the best path for me. I live in my truck and have been working temp jobs to stay afloat. While walking around the city I was offered a job by a former employer. I think Ill take it and live in my truck until I can save up for an apartment.
I know it seems kinda rough but honestly I’m thankful. Im thankful for my clear mind throughout all of this and im thankful for the new enthusiasm and motivation in my life.
