I’m 30 Days Sober
As of 5.11.25 I’m 30 days in! The new things I’m learning now is from within. Now I have to learn how to truly be ok with exiting, and how to live without the chaos. I can finally focus on just being me 100%. Realizing that the trauma I’ve been through doesn’t have to be relived at every moment in my life. I can still express my emotions through my music, but I don’t have to hold onto those feelings. This past year of being homeless, allowing certain shit to slide, dealing with those hard conversations with others and myself, has taught me that some people were truly in my life just for a season, so I can learn and grow. These past few weeks sober have taught me so much. I can get back to me without having to beg for love, or use a negative vice. This time, I can love myself, and be loved by someone that adds to me. The distortion in my heart is finally fading away, because i’ve been mentally, physically, and emotionally releasing from the chapters of my past. I am no longer reliving any of it. I am removing the pain from my body, every time I sing, create a new song, and I dance. I am my own healer, by just talking to God, being in nature, and doing me. This is a feeling, I haven’t felt in almost 15 years. 13 year old me would be so happy, so proud, and I’m gonna keep making her and my family proud 🥲🩵 #sobrietyjourney #sageviolet #embracevulnerability #2025
Achieving sobriety often brings a wave of emotions and reflections. For many, the first 30 days can be the most challenging yet enlightening. During this transformative period, individuals often reconnect with their inner selves, revisiting past traumas while learning to release them. Sobriety can foster a deeper understanding of oneself, allowing for growth and recognition of what truly matters in life. It helps in discerning which relationships are beneficial and which might be toxic, aiding in establishing boundaries that promote emotional health. Creativity often blooms in this newfound clarity; many people find solace in artistic endeavors as a way to express their healing. It's also a time for embracing vulnerability, as sharing one's journey can resonate with and inspire others facing similar battles. Engaging with nature and having spiritual conversations, as mentioned in your article, provide grounding and peace. For those on a sobriety journey, remember that every day is an opportunity to reaffirm the commitment to self-love, growth, and healing. While the path may sometimes be rocky, the journey brings invaluable lessons that shape us into better versions of ourselves.
