I used to be addicted to my phone—checking notifications every 30 seconds like a lab rat. Today, I sat on a bench and just looked at a tree. No photos, no "stories," just me and the leaves. A bird poo...

I threw away my last pack and felt like I dumped a toxic ex. I had a craving today that hit out of nowhere. Relapse isn’t the end — it’s feedback. I’m adjusting.

Mind space freed.

I used to count pills like a routine; now I’m counting days. I changed my routine a bit and it helped more than I expected. My brain tried to convince me ‘just this once’ like a bad salesman. Any tips...

Ran 10km without feeling like death. Used to run hungover and wonder why it hurt so much. Mystery solved.

Always remember where I parked my car now. No more wandering parking lots like a lost soul. GPS thanks me.

Since I quit the sticks, my nose has become a lethal weapon. I smelled my neighbor making toast this morning and I live on the 4th floor. The world is a very smelly place! Mostly good, sometimes "bus-...

Actually finished a whole Netflix series without forgetting the plot and restarting it 5 times. Sober memory is a superpower.

Muscles recover faster after workout. No nicotine dragging me down.

I used to hide behind the curtains every time a siren went past my house, convinced they were coming for my stash. Yesterday, a police car pulled up and I didn’t even flinch. They just went into the s...

Dreams are back and they’re acting like Netflix originals. I changed my routine a bit and it helped more than I expected. I went for a walk and realized my legs have been unemployed for years. One day...

Day 10. The biggest challenge isn't the craving; it's the fact that I have two hands and nothing to hold. I've started carrying a carrot stick like a cigar. I look like a very healthy, very confused m...

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...
