for the past couple of months, i’ve been breaking out SO bad on my cheeks. it’s been constant & ruining my self esteem. I blamed it on my pillow cases, stress, not washing my face enough, EVERYTHING! didn’t blame it on alcohol because as so many of us know, we’d rather find another excuse for the bad things happening to us than blame it on the one thing we think is helping our stress & anxiety. but low and behold, 8 days sober and my skin has cleared up. that headache id get every day that is “from not drinking enough water” is gone, the nausea “from anxiety” has subsided, the lack of energy “from poor sleep” has transformed. these little wins remind me everyday that those cravings aren’t worth it. 8 days sober and so so proud of myself and everyone else here.
