Wow hasn’t it been crazy! I’ve literally burnt out from the last 6 weeks of constant 12 hour days. I didn’t have a break over Christmas so have only had a couple of days off in weeks. I work for the NHS so have been busy buying everything to build vaccination clinics from scratch whilstContinue reading “This weeks thoughts”

Happy New Year
Well 2020, its been a blast! And I mean that…. I’ve fit so much in, done so much and tried to be positive the whole time. I believe this has been the reason I have come out of this unscathed and positive. Some of the good times from this year have been: I went toContinue reading “Happy New Year”
800 days sober!
Im 800 days calmer, more diplomatic, more focused and determined, 800 days more grown up and responsible. Im also 800 days less of a prick, less of a drama queen, 800 days less of a negative self pitying attention seeking crying mess. I’ve very rarely suffered from anxiety since being sober, but I only realisedContinue reading “800 days sober!”

2 Years!
Wow …it’s been 2 years since I stopped punishing myself, stopped the rapid and very slippery slope to self-destruction, stopped relying on alcohol every day to ‘live’.

600 Days!
I’m going to say that for about 5 years I had drunk daily, a stupid amount of wine! I literally couldn’t wait for wine o’clock (this became earlier and earlier as time went on). My life was OK, but I honestly felt I was walking through treacle every single day, but i couldn’t see aContinue reading “600 Days!”
