  39岁的斯蒂芬妮·史密斯来自兰开夏郡的乔利,在戒掉酒瘾后,她决定把钱花在不同的东西上——一辆老式露营车。

  2021年,斯蒂芬妮意识到,在封锁期间,她在周末狂饮,之后她减少了饮酒。事实上,事情变得如此糟糕,以至于她开始昏厥,造成了压力和焦虑。

  相反,她决定攒钱买一辆露营车。在她积累了8000英镑之后,她把酒吧换成了公路旅行,和她奶奶的狗伯蒂一起冒险。

  “我决定要休一个月的假,所以我告诉所有人我要休一个月的假,不会出门,”斯蒂芬妮解释道,并指出她给自己的车取名为“鲁比”。

  “那个月变成了三个月,因为我感觉非常好。大约三个月的时候,我开始注意到我的体型发生了明显的变化,现在已经持续了一年。”

  有一次,奶奶去世后,她开着面包车从湖边回来,斯蒂芬妮和她的朋友们决定带着她的大火烈鸟去当地的运河上玩个痛快。

  她说:“我们让全村的人都出来为我们欢呼,最后我们在报纸上发表了一篇让我们感觉良好的戒毒报道。”所以现在我们用火烈鸟作为清醒和清醒乐趣的标志。”

  她的新戒酒生活方式帮助Stefanie注意到她生活中的许多积极变化,但她发现,在西北部,除了咖啡约会或散步之外,没有多少有趣的戒酒活动可做。

  在TikTok上记录她的前酗酒者之旅时,史戴菲交了一位新朋友,来自西兰开夏郡奥姆斯科克的30岁的莉莉·奎克。莉莉也分享了她自己的戒酒之旅,所以他们联手建立了一个名为火烈鸟AF的无酒精娱乐活动品牌。

  斯蒂芬妮解释说:“把周末的豪饮换成在露营车里探险,对一些人来说是鼓舞人心的,而火烈鸟AF给了人们一种社区意识,你不必到了戒酒的最低谷。”

  现在,Stefanie将她的清醒归功于有短期和长期目标。

  “在努力戒酒的时候,要有一个短期目标和一个长期目标,这是我真正提倡的。她回忆道:“我的短期目标是每天例行的自我表扬和重复,而我的长期目标是为我的面包车存钱。”

  最重要的是,在戒酒的过程中,她感到自己被赋予了力量,而且越来越自信。

  她总结道:“我曾经很不好意思说我不喝酒,因为我认为这是软弱的表现,但现在我觉得完全相反,清醒而自信地做这些事情是一种赋权和力量。”

  现在,斯蒂芬妮和莉莉一起,通过举办从派对、狂欢到正念和研讨会的清醒活动,为其他清醒的人提供力量。他们甚至与领先的无酒精饮料公司合作。
