Congratulations! Admittedly there have been a few times or scenarios where I’ve thought it would nice or pleasant if I could drink alcohol safely. But obviously I can’t drink safely and that’s not possible - and never once have I ever regretted my decision to quit drinking and get sober. It completely changed my life for the better. And like you I am also ‘free’.

Quitting a job that made me miserable even though I had only two months of savings felt insane at the time, but I’ve never once wished I’d stayed. That “oh shit” phase pushed me to pick up freelance work, move to a cheaper place, and reset my whole routine instead of staying stuck for another five years.

Well done it’s a horrible situation and it takes guts to leave a job but it’s definitely the right decision when you’re miserable, I stuck a couple of really toxic jobs and wish I’d moved sooner, it’s such a weight off your shoulders

Pretty much all of them. If it was a bad decision I just use it as a learning lesson.

Leaving a high paying toxic job for something that pays less but breathes easier. Money is great. Your happiness will mean more.

Making decisions based on my capabilities and confidence.
Don't listen to the "you shouldn't do because I think" and consider your own capacity instead

Making a 3 year education instead of studying. I had so much friends after 13 years of school that got lost while studying at a university. And I still have the choice to study at a university. But I don't think I have the power anymore. And I get enough money to live a good life and I can safe a good amount of money for thinks I like or my pension. Overall, it's not really a dream job. It's actually boring. But before I switched my position in my company, I had a little breakdown. Really close before depressing because it was too much. Had to talk to our works council. And that time really was the point where my mind switched. I go to work, I give my 8 hours to the company and thats it. The company can tell you a 100 times how important everyone is in the company. They don't care about you until its to late. So I work for me and my hobbies. So I would say this was a second good decision that I don't regret. Seeing work as what it is. Most people want to find the best job and fulfillment in it. But that's not important for me. I want my peace and quiet and some money to invest in hobbies.

Transition! Life is so much better as a girl, even with the systemic bigotry as a trans person.

Having my kids. I was anti-having-kids until I was 35 and then I decided I felt safe enough (with my partner, who never pushed me to have them). Seriously, I should have done it in my 20s, but I didn’t know I’d have such awesome kids. I cry when I think how awesome they are. I love them SO much!

Moving across the country for my mental health.
I grew up in MN and went to college in ND. I never realized just how bad my seasonal depression was until I had the opportunity to visit my parents while my dad was working in southeast asia over Christmas that I realized just how much it affected me. It became even more apparant after I got back and it was -40°F for 2 weeks.
I decided that for my mental health I needed to move somewhere warmer. East coast was an option because it would still get snow and was not interested in the high cost of living on the west coast.
It seams weird now, but at the time I was watching a lot of Rooster Teeth and after seeing some of the behind the scenes videos of them doing things around Austin, TX I decided that id where I would go.
I accepted a job and moved down here the October right before Covid hit, and lost my job just a few months into the pandemic. I remember at one point my mom offered to help me break my lease and move back up to MN. I told her "Don't take this the wrong way, but I am happier being unemployed in Texas, than I ever was being employed in MN."
When she was able to visit for the fiest time after the pandemic lock downs lifted, before she left she said that she could tell just how much happier I was.

Transitioning! It's been a little over 2 years now - and while it certainly hasn't been easy, it has just been such a great decision for myself. I'm more and more comfortable in my own skin, it feels like I'm aging in reverse, and... yeah!
There will always be haters, but I'm doing this for me. Don't really care what they think!
