Alcohol control

Since I moved in my boyfriend five years ago. I thought it was normal to have a few beers after work (my parents really drink and I was a child). So I continue this trend with having a few days without drinking here and there. I’ve been told my him multiple times and also mum in my ear about this.

This year when lent came around, I wanted to limit my drinking if I wasn’t working the next day. It was a slow and hard process to retrain my brain. I managed with drinking sparkling water for the first few weeks and then it became normal.

There is only a few people knows this and I am secretly proud of what I’ve accomplished. The next step is stop drinking and to have a family that I’ve wanted for so long. I dont want any of this to get in my way.

Not sure where in my family tree but addiction does run and I don’t want to be a part of it.
