I‘m pretty new to this business, and I‘m a bit unsure where to start. I guess I‘ll just start at a random point and work myself through. In the end it may end up in some sort of Danid Lynch-ish short story, but that would eventually reflect my State-of-mind two months ago, when I finally decided to stop drinking and started to confront myself with thoughts, emotions and processes I had managed to dampen for several years, exposing me eventually to my ADHD brain, which came ramming down the door like a hurricane, after stopping to poison myself for I don‘t know how many years.
Noone said it‘d be easy to stop, but the actual decision to stop drinking and putting it into Action was actually surprisingly easy. Coping with withdrawal symptoms, cravings and triggers was no problem. Interestingly, it was the exposure to hard reality and my real emotions was a cracker, with all the positive and negative sides. I‘ll come to that in more detail in follow up posts.
All I can say right now is: being sober was my best decision in years and writing about it makes it all the better.
What is my commitment here? Dunno. Maybe writing a post every day. The topics will vary. I think I will just keep the process dynamic. A structure and clear line will carve its way through like a mountain river.
Until then: take one step at a time and keep up the faith in yourself
