I still can't believe that sometimes that I've not drank for as long as I have. But it's still like it's a daily programme so I still need to wake up every morning and remind myself that I need to do certain things in the world to make sure that I don't drink because I'm an alcoholic and if I pick up a drink, you know, I'm at risk of losing the great life that I have, you know, like I know instantly things would change if I drank, you know, my partner would, things would be different with me and her. Work would go down the gurgler again.
