100 Days
2400 hours
144000 Minutes
Or some where close to that.

100 days ago I sat down and admitted that I had a problem. I couldn't handle the beer anymore. It was time for a change, time for a new me. I "confessed" everything on here, and since that day my friends on here have been nothign short of amazing.

I've laughed
I've cried
I've been scared
I've been embarrassed
I've been ashamed

I've also been proud, & that is something that no one can ever take away from me. 100 days ago I didn't think that this was possible. I didn't believe that the guy who was drinking 18-24 beers a night could just STOP. But holy ****, I have done it. I can't say that it's been easy. I can't say that I haven't stood in front of a beer fridge for an hour wondering if I could have just one.

What I can say, is that if you think you need help, then get it. It's nothing to be ashamed of. It's scary, it hurts, but there is a lot to be said for a sober life.

My friends: There is no way I could of done this without you. You have been nothing short of amazing. You're always there when it's late and I need you. You always know how to make me smile. You know how to make it all seem okay.

I don't know when my next blog will be. 150? 200? 360? But just know that if I can do it, then you can too.



Peace.

Tyler

    I never had a problem with beer. But I realized it took all my money, and left me with nothing. I gave it all up for good this year.

    Very proud of you, and what you have done.


    Stay strong, I'm here with you in spirit.
