ʜᴀᴘᴘʏ ɴᴇᴡ ʏᴇᴀʀ | 2O23 ✨
I survived 2022 in a state of pure ambivalence. I was happy on the surface and deep down I was carrying a lot of hurt and I still am. This last year taught me that even when you’ve done all the work, there’s still more work to be done. There is no quick fix, no snap-your-fingers solution. It’s just me vs. the problem. Everything else was just an element of one or the other.
I had to be painfully honest with myself and find some way forward. This meant big changes like changing who I spent time with and cutting alcohol out of my life. Although drinking didn’t play a significant role in my mistakes, it did in my mental health. I knew if I wanted to feel my best and stop slipping into little bouts of depression, I had had to let it go.
I came into 2O23 alcohol-free and I feel amazing. If you’ve made it this far - a special thanks to you, who have supported me thus far. I could not have made it through this year without you. 💝
