Selfie #1:
Drank every night for a solid 9 months. Made sure not to skip a day. PTSD, depression, and anxiety were winning. I lost my jiu-jitsu mindset.
Selfie #2:
Day 4 of BJJ Globetrotters camp. Skipped a couple days of drinking because I was surrounded by some of the most genuinely awesome people in the world doing what we love to do. I remembered a few important things about life that I had forgotten. Still haven't wanted a drop of booze. Water has never tasted so good.
Sometimes we fuck up our priorities and get side-tracked. I am eternally grateful to have people whom I got spend time with at camp this year. I needed it more than you could ever know.
There is light at the end of the tunnel.

Proud to rock the @royalmarinesjiujitsu REORG foundation mouthguard.
REORG, in association with the Royal Marines charity, encourages a simple mission - to provide a platform for serving personnel and veterans to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, as part of their recovery pathway, and to combat the challenge of mental health and physical disabilities.
BJJ has been a fantastic part of my life for nearly 5 years! Under @ricardojiujitsuuk it has been great for both my physical and mental health, I can't recommend it enough! Everyone should do it civilians, armed forces personnel, emergency service crews, veterans, men, women - everybody!
