LearningToGlow

A fragile man. Broken by abuse and circumstance. I am here to catalog my redemption and to “learn to glow.” Brightly.
Day 4 of sobriety. This sucks.
My kidneys hurt. My body aches.
I’m feeling things I spent years not feeling.
I feel unhinged.
The scariest part is knowing I have to change everything to get well.
At 50, that feels impossible.
But I’m still here.

Day three with no alcohol or drugs.
That part’s easy.
What isn’t is feeling the past crawl back in.
Dreaming it. Sitting in it.
Realizing how much I was masking just to survive.
