recovery
Your illness does not define you. It's your resolve to recover that does.
Connection
The deepest wounds we'll ever have to uncover we receive at such young ages. The pain we tuck away until adulthood haunts us, until we're forced to draw back the curtain and figure out how we'll heal the multiple cuts and wounds we carefully tucked away into our psyche.

Just another step forward
Welcome! First, let me thank you for just stopping in to look. This topic is definitely a dicey one, so I applaud your courage and appreciate you joining in. By simply visiting this blog, our Instagram page or our website Fudzq.com, you are helping us spread our message. It is my hope that through the shared experiences and hard acquired knowledge of people who, like myself, have battled with alcohol addiction, we will be able to form a network of information and available resources for those who continue struggle. I truly believe that those of us who have had success in overcoming our dependence on alcohol can help by sharing inspirational stories of recovery and messages of encouragement inside an online community of individuals interested in paying it forward by helping others who are now where we once were.

Day 11
WHY I DRANK 1. I had a good day. In a stressful and unpredictable job/world, I’ll latch onto to any reason to celebrate. Which isn’t necessarily alcoholic speak for: I’ll take any excuse to drink. When I feel good, I have an urgent need to make the most of that euphoria before it gets away from me. I thought good times were a gift. A limited, one-time-only offer. I had to give myself all I could get. I hadn’t realised that the good days are something I can give to myself. I don’t have to wait around. I just have to take action. Get a strategy. Gently remind me that I have conditioned myself to believe I don’t deserve to be happy. That fuelling the good times with drink won’t make them last longer. That the good feelings won’t run away from me because they’re already within me.
