You Deserve it!

Relax a while
Take your foot of the gas
The situation you’re in
It’ll change, it’ll pass

Find a new way to focus on you
Mindfulness works, it’s true
It’s not selfish
You deserve it too
You really do!

Go for a walk in a park on a summer’s day
Have an ice cream along the way
Being outdoors in nature
All this
Could put you in the good mood you usually save for
When you drink that first glass or two
But you know, that’s a false, chemical state
The one I’m talking about is real and true
It lasts much longer too

After a drink
When you’ve drained your glass
and your mood starts to sink
You seek to replicate it’s effect
Searching for a feeling, a moment that’s perfect
But it’s never worth it

It doesn’t exist
Certainly doesn’t last, makes you feel worse
Better to resist the urge
Start to research
Better ways

That could give you a feeling of
Happier days
And the huge plus is
You’ll genuinely start to feel ok
It won’t always be thunder and rain
You can get back to being you again

If you’re “sober curious” …

If you are drinking too much too often and want to take a break…
