So it’s been a bit more than two weeks since the start of the HSM journey. And I can tell you now i haven’t felt better and I haven’t had my mind so clear and free! Unfortunately, I can’t sleep too well at night and I can only get 4 hours of sleep at the moment but I know it will get better As for the weekend, it went well Got tempted sooooo many times with alcohol.

Today is the start of a new me. The new alcohol free me. Today, I woke up with after another night out with someone I just met and not remembering a lot of things. Large blackouts again happening and now it is time to stop. I always thought that I was in control of myself. I always thought that I never really had a problem with drinking. I always thought that I could go on for days without a drink in my hand. How wrong was I. I tried to do Febfast last year and I failed miserably. Couldn’t even last the whole month! After a few days I had serious withdrawal problems as I started shaking and feeling like I was going crazy! That was when I realised that I had a problem. That I was no longer in control and that the drink was in control of me. [...]
