Can I just say… I have big balls? 😄

It’s hitting me right now: in just one year, I didn’t just quit!!!! I stopped poisoning myself. No more smoking, no more alcohol, no more hard drugs. I shed 20 kg of excess weight and left behind so many burdens.

Honestly, I can hardly believe this myself. And the most beautiful part is that I don’t feel any pull backwards, because a bright, clean future is waiting for me… and I know it.

A year ago, if someone close to me had pointed at this version of me and said, “See, this is possible” I would have laughed in disbelief. I wouldn’t have trusted myself, and I wouldn’t have believed them either.

But here I am. Transformed. And I can truly say I’m proud of myself.

The truth is almost no one believed I could do this. Except for one person. Just one 🥹 the one who met me in that dark hole and helped me climb out.

It sounds unbelievable, doesn’t it? That one person’s presence, love, and belief could change everything. But it’s real 😍

There’s a saying: show me your friend, and I’ll tell you who you are 😉

Do you have a story like this to share? About your own battles with addiction… or about those rare, heaven-sent people who show up and help pull us back into the light?

This selfie actually matches perfectly the way I feel inside 😎
