About
My Wake-Up Call
Two weeks before Easter 2024, I hit rock bottom in a vodka and amphetamine-fueled bender. I was a meat puppet, draining joy from everyone around me, my spirit nearly snuffed out. The fear of living that way—more than dying—woke me up. That moment changed everything.
What Is Raw Sobriety?
Raw Sobriety is a digital journal that I want to use to document my journey through life and sobriety. I want to share my thoughts, my struggles, my successes, and randomness. I want to share my journey with you.
Why I’m Here
I have nowhere else to go. I just want to put my thoughts and experiences out in the ether. I have for the most part kept a journal. Even in my worst I continued to write. Some of it is quite good. Most of it is frightening to read actually. The things that I was writing when high on meth are the most alarming. Maybe one day I will share some of that. I thought that for the seven of you that this reaches you may find some commonality. In return you may want to share your experiences in getting sober. My plan is to write something weekly and hopefully daily. Please feel free to e-mail me. Would love to hear from you. I hope this finds you in good health.
