Trying to stay sober.
"I felt empty and sad for years, and for a long, long time, alcohol worked.
I’d drink, and all the sadness would go away.
Not only did the sadness go away, but I was fantastic.
I was beautiful, funny, I had a great figure, and I could do math.
But at some point, the booze stopped working.
That’s when drinking started sucking.
Every time I drank, I could feel pieces of me leaving.
I continued to drink until there was nothing left.
Just emptiness."
