What a beautiful share, Amy. I appreciate your honesty to sobriety. I'm going on about three months right now, and never felt better.

Hi Bryce and thank you! Doesn't it feel good? Booze is such a slippery slope (and for some of us more than others). I think there's still a belief that your drinking is all good as long as you don't get a DUI or land in rehab. That's why I thought it was important for me to tell my story about how I came to see that my drinking — which lacked any high drama but included problematic behavior — needed to stop. And that there's life on the other side of booze.

Christina, if anyone could ever be accused of being a long-time supporter of my writing, it's you. I hope you are happy that I finally made it to Substack and pushing this little hobby of mine forward. I look forward to hearing what you think I should do next. ;) So, so grateful for your continued support.
