"This year, I blacked out; but after an eight-day detox, my priority was to get through the holiday without alcohol. I decided to treat Christmas like any other day."
"I surprised myself when no one asked me what I was doing for Christmas. Without that pressure, it was easier to focus on my sobriety and enjoy the day on my own terms."
"I realized there's no 'right way' to do Christmas. The expectations and traditions cause pressure, but you can redefine the celebration however you choose."
"On Christmas, I did exactly what I wanted: I cooked a roast chicken, embraced unconventional flavors, and allowed myself to enjoy each moment without alcohol."
