EDC 2025 was everything I could have ever wanted.
I decided to go sober this year, initially the plan was for me to have a few drinks and my weed pen, possibly shrooms. I ended up being so anxious that the shot I took as I walked into the venue quickly wore off after I danced at the first stage (Cosmic Meadow). Eventually decided I needed to experience it sober.
Met so many nice people and I felt like I collected a bunch of memories that I’ll be able to write about in my junk journal. The best part is that I’ll be able to remember everything.
The last EDC I attended was in 2019 with an ex. I took two pressed “e” pills and was so sick towards the end. Idk how I didn’t die that night or any night that I had a bender, but I’ve been sober off pills for 6 years now and I really wanted to enjoy an event like this without a stimulant. In fact, I just came up on the 6 year anniversary of my sobriety this past EDC weekend. Yay me! 🩷
My boyfriend (now) ended up working at one of the Wedding Chapels and he had such a great time. It made me so happy to see him enjoy something that meant so much to me since I started raving in my early 20s. We ended up “getting spiritually married” at the chapel he was at too.
Anyways, we’re making plans to return next year for a friend’s wedding at one of the chapels. I’m looking forward to going back. I’ll be better prepared this time around with all my trinkets & Kandi.
I’m never letting someone who hurt me from my past take something I loved and making me despise it. Their actions don’t reflect mine.
I’m happy.
