There’s this thing called spontaneous sobriety. Have you heard of it?

It’s not talked about much, but @thisnakedmind shares the concept (side note ; the link to this amazing book that helped me stop drinking is in my bio under Amazon faves).

Essentially it’s stopping an addictive behavior without a structured support group or treatment.

There is nothing wrong with treatment or support groups like AA. It just wasn’t my story.

For me, it was a moment of clarity on my couch on a cold night in January.

I still had so much shame from that Halloween a few months back; where I didn’t remember getting home or putting my daughter to bed.

I was coming off of a week where I was drinking more heavily with family in town, and my body was physically hurting.

I decided, in that moment; to ask my husband for help in my stopping drinking for good.

It was a moment, with a million nudges that led up to it.

I became spontaneously sober on January 8, 2023. I don’t miss drinking and I don’t crave it, even though I’d drank regularly for 15 years.

Spontaneous sobriety is a real thing, and @thisnakedmind helped me see this way of living, without white-knuckling willpower, was available to me.

Whether your journey is similar or not, know that there is hope 💗 and if you’d like to hear more about the steps I took after I stopped to ensure I wouldn’t start again, drop an emoji below ⬇️ and I’ll send you the link to my free newsletter series.
