Today I celebrate four years sober, after the emotions of this weekend watching that video completely broke me, I’ve just sat on my bed crying for 10 minutes, it’s been a hard journey, but it’s giving me some amazing rewards.
It’s hard to find the words for something like this that’s so personal, but my sobriety means my kids finally have their dad fully present instead of blurred by benders, my family has a man who shows up instead of escapes, and I’ve built a life I no longer want to check out of, because the peace, pride, and purpose I get from being there for them beats anything drink or drugs ever promised.
And just look at what I’ve been able to achieve in just four years of sobriety, 2 more babies, a happy wife, boxing, films, tours & happiness.
It’s been worth it, if it’s currently got its teeth sunk into you, you do t need it, it’s just a habbit, a coping mechanism, out what you’re trying to escape and confront it.
Don’t wait, don’t lose any more of your life, there’s so much more out there for you ❤️
