I have had a breakthrough. Something changed in me, a switch flipped. My will power is beyond anything I've ever experienced in the past. I've been working out 2 months straight officially today, I quit nicotine 2 months ago, I quit cigarettes 8 months ago, same with alcohol. And lastly. I quit pills 2 years ago. I have the will power I always wanted. It's wild. I also nailed a crazy good job and am going to be licensed as an insurance agent in the near future a couple weeks ago. This is for everyone who thinks it never gets better, it really does. It's the small victories, life isn't easy and nothing easy to achieve is worthwhile. If I can do it anyone can. Just never give up on who you are and what you want, everything will come together when life is ready for it. Big thank you to my friends who stuck by me and pushed me in this direction, my family for never giving up on me even when I was at my lowest, and myself for waking up that day and saying I'm done being a victim. I can't live the rest of my life sad like I've lived the last 17 years. I can't. I won't, and neither should you. I have broken a long cycle I felt would be the end of me, everything is working better. Life will become better. Everything works out if you persevere through the dark times. It may seem like everything is against you but I realized, at least for me, my mind was mostly against me and reminding me of my fears, not the reality of the world. Once I had this epiphany I was able to take control. I have never been so happy in my life. Its weird.
