Congratulations on 5 years to kristyamorgan 🎉
“Ekkkkkkk… 5 years sober today. 🥹
1,825 days of not giving up, even when it was hard. Especially when it was hard.
There was a time I couldn’t get past a single day without telling myself, “I’ll just have one glass. I deserve it. It’s my reward.”
But one glass turned into one bottle… then two.
Still convinced I could moderate
Because everyone else was doing it.
But I’d wake up each morning with guilt and promises. Telling myself, “Today I’ll be strong.”
That cycle repeated for years…
Until I found the strength to admit:
I couldn’t control it, it controlled me.
The woman on the left was barely holding on.
Tired. Lost. Drowning in wine no one could see.
She smiled… but inside, she was breaking.
But something in her, in me still hoped. Still believed there had to be more. So I gave it one last try.
And that one decision changed everything. 🌱
Now, I wake up clear.
I wake up free.
I wake up proud of the woman I am today.
This journey hasn’t been perfect.
It’s been messy, emotional, and painful at times…
But it’s also been the most beautiful thing I’ve ever done
For myself, and for my family.
Sobriety didn’t just give me a second chance…
It gave me myself back.A new way, a new life.
If you’re in that place right now, thinking you can’t do it…
Please know, you can.
And you deserve to.
Here’s to 5 years of healing.
Of freedom.
Of becoming the woman I was always meant to be.
And to anyone still in the fight, I see you.
You’re not alone.
Keep going. 🙏🏻❤️”
