Day 20 of no refined sugar. I bit into an apple today and it felt like a flavor explosion. I think I could see colors I've never seen before. I used to think a salad was just a "pre-dessert." Now, I a...

I used to say ‘just one’ and somehow it became a full committee meeting. I saved money this week and it shocked me honestly. I’m posting here instead of isolating. That’s my win today.

Used to be a Friday night tradition: get drunk, forget my ATM PIN, lock my card, and spend Saturday morning crying at the bank. Last night, I paid for dinner, entered the code on the first try, and di...

At the office party, I didn’t want to explain my sobriety, so I told everyone I was a "Water Sommelier." I spent 20 minutes describing the "earthy notes" and "aggressive bubbles" of a bottle of Kering...

Day 13: I’m irritated by air. Literally air. I relapsed recently and I’m trying not to disappear in shame. I’m posting here instead of isolating. That’s my win today.

My triggers were coffee, stress, and existing… so yeah. My sleep is improving, but the dreams are wild. I went for a walk and realized my legs have been unemployed for years. If you’re reading this on...

I deleted that "one app" that was eating my life. I realized I was spending 4 hours a day watching strangers argue about things that don't exist. In that extra time, I’ve learned how to cook a decent ...

Dentist said my teeth are noticeably whiter. Smile game upgraded!

Laughter louder in person.
