Dear Alcohol

Author: Mary

Where do I begin? When you first came into my life, I was 15 years old and you made me feel so cool and accepted. All I truly ever wanted in life was to feel accepted. At first, we would just hangout on the weekends. Then I found myself sneaking you into gatorade bottles and bringing you with me wherever I went. When we were together, I felt invincible. I could do anything and talk to anyone. We have had some fun, crazy nights and I have a few good memories to cherish. You had me at hello.

I thought I found myself in you, but it truly was the beginning of a dark path. The next 12 years with you would be hell. If I knew then what I know now, I would have NEVER picked you up that night. I would have never made you such a priority, when all you were was a problem. You have costed me so much in those years. I have got in car accidents, 3 DUIs ( 2 at 18 years old), and woken up in jail because of you. You have made me despise the person that I became. I couldn’t even look in the mirror anymore. You have caused me great harm and health problems. Yet I still wanted you, no matter what. I have finally come to my senses that you no longer deserve a place in my life. I hate you, alcohol. You have ruined family members of mine, me, and many others out there. Alcohol, I wish you well in hell! You are to stay away from me. I mean it this time.

Sincerely,

This little girl fighting for her life back

Share times when you said goodbye to some bad habits and vices. How did it go for you?
