“I always thought, would I be boring sober? Would I lose my personality? Would I lose my sense of humour?

That’s what always put me off giving up the drink.

I’m now 5 and a half months sober, thanks to Jo, and I have to say I’m funnier than ever! But now when I laugh, I remember it and I congratulate myself for being funny! I’m not drunken funny, I’m genuinely belly-laugh funny.

Her support was everything I needed and more. It saved my relationship, and my partner now sees the raw and real me, good and bad, but I now feel everything.

Gone are the Sunday morning arguments where I’d deflect and be a bitch. Gone are the tears. Gone is the paranoia that he’d leave me after another drunken night.

And it’s all down to Jo - I usually save my drama for when I’m drunk, but Jo really did save my life.”
