Ow, the first relationship's ending sounds really rough, I feel for you :/

Godspeed to your sobriety!

Currently I'm 5 years sober which is the longest I've been sober since I was 12 years old.

Honestly sobriety is pretty great.

It had some rocky moments during the first year but it's only gotten easier with time.

Yeah that first poly relationship ending was also the first time my sobriety failed.

All in all to get to this point in sobriety took 4 tries but it was worth the effort.
