THANK YOU LORD FOR ANOTHER DAY SOBER;

 

Mornings have always been a bit rough for me. I tend to wake up late. My mom says I’ve been nocturnal since I was a baby. Things got even tougher after I started taking medication for high blood pressure; it’s been about five years now.

Most mornings, I wake up feeling drained and empty. But as the day goes on, the weight begins to lift. For that, I thank You Lord. The day never turns out the way the heaviness of the morning projects it will.

I remember when I was still drinking. I had no tools to deal with the morning fog. I’d carry the weight through the day, and by evening, the depression would feel unbearable. Drinking felt like the only escape. Sometimes a cigarette helped, but only for a short while.

I come from a bloodline marked by manic depression. I grew up around it but never got to learn of the tools to deal with it.

Recovery has taught me how to deal with it.

The first…
