As Halloween approaches, memories of past Octobers flood my mind. I used to battle through the month, eagerly awaiting the chance to let loose at Halloween parties and end the month on a seemingly high note. But in reality, my nights of indulgence only led to a bleak November, filled with regret, anxiety, and the crushing weight of a broken sobriety streak. I never connected the dots, mistaking my excessive drinking for fun. However, I've learned the truth, and I can never unlearn it. There's another way to celebrate Halloween, one that allows us to feel incredible every day.
Finding a New Kind of High:
When I reflect on past Halloween parties, I realise that the temporary high I experienced was merely an illusion. It was a fleeting moment of euphoria, quickly overshadowed by the consequences that followed. But by choosing sobriety, we have the chance to create lasting memories and authentic joy. Instead of relying on substances to enhance our experiences, we can tap into the natural highs that come from genuine connections, laughter, and self-discovery.
