The further away I move from liquor, the more visceral disgust I feel towards the substance. For years before I became an alcoholic, I had always maintained that alcohol is the absolute worst drug in every sense. Definitely the most inebriating, stupifying drug. Also the worst hangover with the exception of meth. My sleep is also starting to get a lot better now that I don't have to drink to get to sleep. There's no more shame from the immense effort that goes towards hiding an addiction. The further out I get, the more worth it it is

    Yeah that's nerve damage you're feeling. I get them less often, but get sensory overload a lot more than I used to now that I'm not drinking. Like my skin burns from touching things. I'm hoping this gets better the further away I get from alcohol
