I haven't seen any crazy benefits of being dry. My energy is the same, I'm eating more, and my skin is arguably worse. Maybe there are more subtle benefits I'm not noticing.... BUT sticking it out has been more of a willpower thing for me. I wish I could say I felt a positive impact but I genuinely don't (other than being proud of myself for sticking to something).
Never considered myself a "problem drinker" but wanted to reevaluate my relationship w alcohol after years of not taking a break.
I think this journey has served its purpose and really want a drink .........but also think I might be mad at myself if I do that. Trying to give myself grace as well and be proud of how far I've come.
Anyone else having this internal battle ??!?! It's exhausting lol
Yup. I almost caved last night. It didn’t help that my husband chimed in with a “does it really matter at this stage?” But I had a NA with my pizza, and after that my craving for a Friday glass of wine went away. Still sober!
