A must watch...

This is a really, really, really amazing powerful video.


I have been the blond woman in this video so so so many times. Not that I've been taken advantage of like she (almost) was.. but completely lost like she appears to be. Vacant eyes, stumbling, numb. Lost inside a drunk woman's body.

Just gone. Gone inside a body that is full to the brim with booze. That was me for years and years and years.

Young me at bars and clubs and parties and the like. Then older me on the sofa at home. Drunk me lost inside a drunk woman's body.

It is remarkable the fundamental shift I've had now that I have removed alcohol from my life. A phenomenal change in how I move in the world, how I feel to myself. How I am.

I really love being sober.

Love, Mrs D xxx

  7. EXCELLENT video! One that I'm going to pass along not only to my friends, but more importantly to the friends of my boys (after they watch it). Thanks Mrs. D!

  9. Amazing video! For a minute there I thought this was more about men targeting women than it was about women drinking - glad I watched it to the end (I nearly didn't!). I also ENJOY being sober. I'm pleased to have found your blog.
