Thanks so much for the mention, Katie. I loved getting a glimpse into your sobriety story. Similar to you, I didn’t follow a single program - though I participated in a few of them, including Holly Whitaker’s former Sobriety School and Annie Grace’s programs. Those were a beautiful part of my support system, and the other components you mentioned were (and remain) pivotal as well - both in my choice to quit alcohol and in staying alcohol-free.

While I didn’t go the AA route, I do attend meetings online from time to time and really appreciate them - folks show up with such honesty, openness, and willingness to take personal accountability. I love that. And - like you - I’m deeply grateful my partner is sober. I wouldn’t be with him otherwise.

Thank you for sharing your experience. This is such an important perspective on cannabis, and one that I think many, many people can relate too, even though we are told that “weed isn’t addictive.” I have been alcohol free for just over a year now, and I’m so much less anxious and much more connected to my values ❤️
