🥴🫣 OPE.
An unrelenting feeling of cringe fills me up when I see photos from when I was wasted. The artificial confidence, the gross habits, the over sexualizing of myself for attention. And I was a teenager.
I don’t often look back and have regrets. Everything I’ve done and said has made me who I am today and I love me! But seeing the moments of “oh yikes, that was embarrassing” does send me into a bit of a spiral. As someone who doesn’t need to share to stay sober, this picture shows my point. I don’t ever want to see that version of me again. I don’t need constant reminders, I have my own memories.
But do whatever it takes for you to stay sober. Use the tools you have. Go learn new ones, see what works.
