You don't need a rock bottom to quit drinking, but you do need a wake-up call.

You don't have to hit rock bottom to change your relationship with alcohol. That's an old belief that people need to lose everything before they finally quit for good and realize that they have a problem.

That notion will have you stuck in this cycle longer than need be and, in the long run, worse off. We all have different journeys and wake-up calls.
My wake-up call was the day I walked into detox, but for 3 years, I let myself get to that point. Going back and forth with a few weeks or a month of sobriety and then back to drinking. And the cycle repeated, and each time it led me down a darker path quicker than it did the previous time.

My wake-up call was detox, and I'd recommend stopping before using that as yours. 😉 These are still wake-up calls too.

✨Not remembering how you got to bed the night before.
✨Driving under the influence.
✨Sending text messages that you regret the next day.
✨Being controlled by your 5 pm on the dot glass of wine.
✨Having your kids tell you your favorite drink is wine.
✨Feeling physically ill from being hungover.
✨Crippling anxiety the day after drinking.
✨A gentle nudge that something just isn't right with your drinking.

If you're questioning your relationship with alcohol, then that's all you need to want to change. Don't let yourself get to a place that's harder to dig out of if you don't have to. I understand that many of us will justify that we're not that bad because we're not drinking morning until night, but I hope you know that my drinking morning to night didn't happen overnight either. It happened over years. Years that I kept ignoring the signs. Ignoring how I felt—ignoring everything but the one thing that gave me comfort until I physically needed it to survive.

Whatever your wake-up call is, you're going to need tools and support to help you stay consistent and confident on this journey. One way to do that is by joining the Confidently Be Alcohol-Free - 60 Day Challenge starting March 1st! Click here for details and to grab your spot!
