80 days sober alcholday for about six years I was hiding it from everyone even my best friend no one knew but my alcohol addicted live in boyfriend he has been drinking for years I wrote a post about him in the liver diease section"I think my boyfriend is dying" . Anyway, I am celebrating today it has been a hard road but absolutely worth every minute of sobriety. I never realized how much of a hold alcohol has had on my life the physical effects became known to me the day I quit no more chipmunk face my skin is no longer itchy my stomach doesn't look bloated I see like a baby before I used to wake up three to four times in a night with dry mouth ugh now I sleep through the night . My energy level is so high my work performance is amazing I work in customer service and I handle customer problems with ease I feel I'm in a better place now. I have also change my eating habits and take supplements to support my liver one that I love that doesn't have any side effects is alpha liporic acid (ala) it is amazing I could go on and on but I think I'm going to start a blog instead. Looking back I couldn't see my self with out alcohol for 30 days today it has been 80 and counting I'm so happy I hope this post gives someone encouragement to continue to stay sober or make the decision to get sober....
