No more wasted, drunk hungover weekends! Your energy levels will explode!
July 24, 2016, I had the worst hangover of my life. I was drinking constantly, blacking out drunk every day and my health was in dire straights. I had done something truly stupid the night before and I was at my rock bottom. I knew I couldn't go on like that and I also knew that my true self was dying from the poison. The REAL me was being held captive by the habit of abusing alcohol. I had to break that habit and fast.
I quit. Cold Turkey. It was rough. Alcohol doesn't leave your body for 10 days. But, day after day I felt better. I talked OUTLOUD to myself whenever I wanted to drive to the store and get a box of wine... playing it forward in my mind and the end result was never good. Your mind and words are POWERFUL and you can change your mind about alcohol and taking that drink. PSA: The first drink is the biggest liar EVER. Walk away. Don't believe you can have just one. Walk away. Go for a walk. Call someone. Sit with your craving and actually think about how you're feeling and thinking and why. Are you lonely? Tired? Hungry?
You have to replace the alcohol with something. Figure it out.
My health is dramatically better, my mental state is actually happy, I sleep better, I have saved over $15,000 and I feel serene and peaceful in my spiritual life.
YOU CAN QUIT DRINKING, TOO!
I've also been able to be incredibly creative and started using my God-given talents to do some acrylic painting. I would never have been able to create like this if I had been blacked out drunk. If you are interested in seeing the book covers I created (I took photos of my paintings. Actual paintings are for sale, too), please go to my author site on Amazon called Sirius Art (see link below). Please follow as I am adding a lot more content daily. Journals, dream journal, notebooks, sketchbooks, prayer lists , sermon notes, password trackers, weekly meal planning and more! Sudoko, word search, word scramble, crosswords. Please FOLLOW my author page so you will see new merchandise as I upload it. I would certainly appreciate your support for small business!

I quit in Oct 2021. I have had a few moments where I have been tempted to 'enjoy' some wine but they have passed. All the best to everyone.

I have an app that adds up all the money I saved. I can afford to buy a brand new car at this point. With cash.

Willa, I'm super sorry to hear you're still feeling crappy. Nutrition is imperative. What are you eating?If you've been drinking for years, it's going to take your body awhile to heal. We don't get to our disease overnight so be patient. However, you may have done some damage that needs medical attention. Have you had a checkup lately? Seriously, alcohol is a KILLER so if you've done some damage, it will take time. No junk food, no sugar, eat lots of veggies and fruit. Alcohol really f***ks our hormones and that's why you're not sleeping. Do you know if you have sleep apnea? I didn't know I did until I quit drinking. I was always black out drunk (passed out) so didn't realize I wasn't breathing during sleep until I quit drinking! So many things to address. I'm incredibly happy to know you're not drinking! But I do encourage you to now take control of your diet/nutrition and see if anything helps. We are the ONLY ones who can save ourselves. Nobody else is going to do it for us. I had to do all of the above, too. I'm here for you. 💜
