Bella Hadid Celebrates 10 Months Of Sobriety Journey And Advocates For Dry July
In a heartwarming Instagram post, 26-year-old model Bella Hadid proudly announced a significant milestone in her sobriety journey. Sharing her progress with her followers, she revealed that she is nearly 10 months sober, and her transformation has been fueled by self-love and the support of Kin Euphorics, a non-alcoholic beverage drink.
The model expressed her admiration for everyone participating in Dry July, a movement encouraging people to abstain from alcohol for a month. Bella, who now serves as co-founder and partner of Kin, discovered the benefits of this alcohol-free, botanical-infused seltzer brand in September 2021. It has helped her cope with anxiety, the brain fog from Lyme disease, and the burnout that comes with constant work and travel.
In an insightful interview with InStyle, the model elaborated on her decision to embrace sobriety. She acknowledged the negative impact alcohol had on her life, causing anxiety and regret in the wee hours of the morning. Reflecting on her past experiences, she recognized that alcohol only brought about pain and stress, leading her to cancel nights out to avoid losing control.
Having experienced the allure of alcohol in the past, Bella confessed to her fair share of drinking. However, she recognized the need for a change and embarked on a journey to sobriety. This positive transformation has garnered widespread support and admiration from her followers and fans.
The model’s comment section was filled with empathy as many users dropped comments supporting her. “So proud of you, angel,” a user said. Another wrote, ““10 months !!! Go bb go!’
Throughout her journey, Bella has been open about her struggles with alcohol, including a DUI incident in 2014 that resulted in probation, community service, and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Despite this challenging past, she has emerged as an inspiring advocate for sobriety and the joys of a life free from alcohol’s grasp.
“”I don’t feel the need [to drink alcohol] because I know how it will affect me at 3 in the morning when I wake up with horrible anxiety thinking about that one thing I said five years ago when I graduated high school,” she shared in an interview with Instyle. “”There’s just this never-ending effect of, essentially, you know, pain and stress over those few drinks that didn’t really do much, you know?” she added.
“I have done my fair share of drinking. I loved alcohol, and it got to the point where even I started to, you know, cancel nights out that I felt like I wouldn’t be able to control myself,” she said further.
