The Sober Road Isn’t Smooth

November 21, 2012 By SoberJulie 2 Comments

Generally speaking when things are going well I fall apart. Perhaps it's because the times when my life is on an uphill is after a time of challenges. This past month has been a difficult one, between my health, dealing with legal matters from my car accident, broken down cars and financial concerns.....it was a long stretch. One that found me on my knees often asking God to keep me strong, to give me the strength to see the forest through the trees. Honestly there were days where I wanted ...

I Never Thought I Would Be Addicted to Drugs

June 19, 2012 By SoberJulie 5 Comments

Back in my drinking days I subconsciously knew my relationship with alcohol wasn't normal. The need I had ...

Almost forgot I Still Have Alcholism

May 23, 2012 By SoberJulie 15 Comments

with-a-drink

With the long weekend behind me I'm reflecting on how my life has changed so drastically since I faced my alcoholism. It's amazing to think how many long-weekends of days gone by I spent hammered and what I thought was happy. Typically in the past when a long weekend approached my husband and I were booked up with social events. Friday evening would find me at the liquor store stocking up for the weekend. With my over-sized swanky wine glasses polished the cork would pop by 6pm and oh I do ...
