For ten years, the only time I saw the sunrise was while stumbling out of a club in Westlands, looking for eggs. This morning, I saw it from my balcony with a cup of tea. It turns out the sun is actua...

For two years, every movie was just a series of colorful lights followed by me waking up during the credits. Last night, I watched a thriller. I guessed the killer. I saw the plot twist. I felt the su...

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...

Drive without fighting sleep. Eyes stay open naturally. Magic!

I used to say ‘just one’ and somehow it became a full committee meeting. I had a craving today that hit out of nowhere. One day at a time. Today is enough.

Watched a thriller movie without thinking the police were coming for me. Just enjoyed the plot twists like a normal person.

I used to count pills like a routine; now I’m counting days. I’m noticing emotions I used to numb, and it’s uncomfortable but real. I went for a walk and realized my legs have been unemployed for year...

Eating amazing food without getting sleepy from drinks. I can actually finish my plate AND dessert. Revolutionary.

I told myself weed made me creative, but I wasn’t finishing anything. I almost slipped, but I paused and remembered why I started. My brain tried to convince me ‘just this once’ like a bad salesman. A...

The lift in my apartment broke today. Usually, this would be a death sentence for my lungs. I hiked up 6 floors and didn't even need an oxygen tank at the top. I felt like Usain Bolt! I didn't even ha...
