My intentions with this isn’t about preaching. But the further you remove yourself from a harmful behaviour you have normalised, the more evil it starts to become.

I am sharing this because I’m extremely grateful for where I currently am. I’ve slowly learned to enjoy the things I love again without drinking. I’m healthier, more present and all I want to do is be a positive influence on the people who I love.

I had my wallet and phone taken from my pockets multiple times. I think it’s a miracle nothing worse ever happened.

Last year I told my partner I had no intentions to ever stop but I knew if it continued something really bad would eventually happen. Probably me dying in my sleep or maybe I would pass out alone in a shady bar at 2am (which was a common occurrence) and someone could take advantage of me.

By age 15 I was a binge drinker. My Dad would buy me booze if I asked. That may have seemed like a good idea I guess. But the seeds were planted. I started playing music in bars to adults in punk and later on pop rock bands. Booze went hand in hand. It was easy. It was fun. Until a point.

It’s been 4 months since quitting drinking alcohol and going to the gym. I’ve lost 8kg and for the first time in my life I feel comfortable inside my body. I first experimented with drugs and alcohol at age 13. Skateboarding at that time plus living in a small town, it was easy and fun to do.
