Sobriety Stories

Ten years later. Willow Gray had spent an entire decade actively avoiding Hermione Granger. In that time, she built a life she was content with: one rooted in sobriety and in honoring her sister's memory. But when Hermione stumbles into a quiet bookstore in London, Willow finds herself confronted with everything she has spent years trying to escape. What begins as a simple interaction becomes an unavoidable proximity, despite Willow's restraint. Hermione's curiosity gets the better of her; she can't understand how she never once crossed paths with Willow at school. That curiosity slowly deepens into something neither of them anticipated, forcing Willow to navigate the growing weight of her feelings while keeping Hermione in the dark, bound by the terms of an Unbreakable Vow. When healing has meant restraint, what does love demand? *I DO NOT OWN HERMIONE GRANGER OR ANY ASPECT OF THE WIZARDING WORLD. ANY REFERENCES TO RELATED CONTENT ARE NOT CLAIMED AS MY OWN. ALL RIGHTS BELONG TO J.K. ROWLING.*

"The greatest tragedy of my life will be having met you at the wrong time."

Prequel to Barbed Wire Psalms Carousel of Destruction is a series of raw, confessional poems about the cycles we swear we're done with... until they pull us back in. Addiction. Relapse. Temptation. Memory. Survival. Every piece is a snapshot of the spin- the chaos, the crash, and the climb back out. These aren't pretty stories. They're the ones you feel in your ribs. - Left The Circle I - The Pullback II - Downward Spiral III https://www.patreon.com/posts/barbed-wire-144840033?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link

I wrote this about how I found and then lost my spirituality through my relapse.

After surviving their rough patch last winter, Kellin and Vic are happy. Winter rolls around again, and things start getting difficult for Kellin. Vic knows something is wrong, but it's clear Kellin doesn't want to talk about it. Will they be able to overcome the winter again, or will everything collapse? Sequel is in the works! (Also on AO3)

This is the first memior I wrote. As well as the first really concious memory I have. Also part of the first chapter of the book I'm working on about my life.

"Hello my love" was how I greeted her every single time. Every single malt scotch placed before me. The fellow drinkers at my sides, whether they were my fellows or not, I could feel their glances, their gazes and stares as I said the words. As if I was crazy. I didn't have many fellows left in my life, so perhaps I was crazy. Crazy for the drink I was. She was crazy for me, too.

nothing to live for, only a good drink. why must life be so hard... and Graham be so pretty? #10 in vodka 05/01/24

just some thoughts i had about you ...i hope this finds you I wrote this about someone, doesn't necessarily mean you should reach out to someone who you once loved.

🐺 Meet Beer Wolf: once an average guy, now a booze-fueled werewolf with a thirst for blood and lager. But when a DUI forces him to quit drinking, Beer Wolf becomes deadlier than ever. Sobriety never looked so savage. 🍻

A beautiful disaster wrapped up and packaged with a bow, turned into a masterpiece.

This is my recovery story, from rehab to the unfinished ending. This is my journey through the monsters that tried to kill me and how I stayed sober.

Sometimes, professional intervention can pull the person up from the quicksand of addiction. Other times, learn the benefits of sober living can motivate them to join a detox or rehab program.
