#soberfriday

12 days down. Another sober Friday. I’m able to run more and more of my jogging route. Stamina and strength building. It was hard to begin a sober lifestyle but it has been worth it. - #sober #soberforthehealthofit #sobergirlsociety #soberlife #soberfriday #alocholfree #cigarettefree #health #workingonme #gettinghealthy #gettinghealthier https://www.instagram.com/p/CTGHdaGLa5q/?utm_medium=tumblr

When I first got sober Friday nights terrified me. The idea of entering the weekend without the bar scene was completely unnatural and against everything I knew. . . Understanding I couldn't drink anymore, and unsure of what to do with myself, I decided to go see a movie by myself. It was Casablanca. I'll never forget how awkward it felt buying a ticket for one, and settling into that seat alone. . . When I left, though, I left with a sense of pride that I could be the girl who went to a movie by herself. That concept, too, was foreign: that I could be a person alone outside in the real world without booze. . . Since then I've grown an incredible love of movies and exploring different theatres. I go almost every Friday night with the friends I've met in sobriety, and when I have the chance, I go alone and quite enjoy it. . . There are so many interests and hobbies I have now that I didn't know were in me. I was consumed by self loathing and obssessed with self medicating. I'm grateful to be able to approach myself with love today, and to explore the world as a person alone. No booze, no drugs, no Band-Aids. Just life in the raw, as it is and as I am. . . #sober #gettingsober #lifeinsobriety #sobriety #soberfriday #soberlife #soberliving #soberwomen (at Village East Cinema) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsPTC-MgY6X/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ucfqt33uz36b
