I found this video on Alcohol addiction I though I would share. 

Its amazing to see someone strugle with such similar struggles with alcohol.

Vodka Addiction

I'm so greatful that 2 years later I am clear and sober.

Yes Tasha its amazing on the journey.
The other day I was feeling sick and I wanted to throw up, I relized how long it had been since I had thrown up I had forgotten the sensation. (which used to be daily)

For some reason these little timbits of my past keep popping into my head.

Another one was how I would feel embarrassed for my actions. I forgot about that feeling too.

Its good to have moved past but its also good to remember.

It's great when we can look back and see how far we've come. At least once a day something will happen that reminds me that the old me would want a drink but the new sober me uses memories of past disasters to think myself right out of that drink as well as the temptation. The past is a place I learned how to face the future. Best wishes!
