Kyle Richards is commemorating 365 days without alcohol. “.
The 54-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star revealed on Instagram on Saturday that she has “never felt better” after one year of sobriety. “.
Richards posted a selfie and the caption, “Today marks one year alcohol free for me. “I came to the conclusion that I didn’t want to drink for a number of reasons. First and foremost, I didn’t think it had a place where I wanted to be. “.
Richards continued by saying that she decided to stop drinking because “I knew it was no longer serving me physically, mentally, or spiritually,” and that the procedure “was much easier than I thought it would be. “.
“I never gave a time frame for when I would start drinking again or said IF I ever would. All I know is that I’ve never felt physically better or had more mental clarity,” the Bravo star continued. “I’ve discovered that I still overshare, but at least I don’t feel anxious about it. I’ve also discovered that I still make foolish decisions occasionally and beat myself up over them. “.
Although some of her peers “met with resistance,” according to Richards, they were “mostly supportive even if they didn’t quite understand since I don’t have a ‘problem’ with alcohol.”. ” .
Although trust me, there were times when it didn’t feel like that, she continued, adding that she always felt “depressed the next day” after drinking alcohol, regardless of how enjoyable the previous night had been. ”.
Furthermore, life will undoubtedly present us with some challenging days. After 27 years of marriage, Richards recently announced her separation from Mauricio Umansky. “I certainly don’t need to be adding any extra ones to that list,” she said.
She ended by saying, “A lot of you DM me asking about my journey without alcohol, so I decided to share here today on this 365th day.
Cheers.

Richards’ RHOBH co-stars showed their support in the comments section. Garcelle Beavais wrote, “Your discipline is admirable, and Erika Girardi added, “Proud of you. ”.
When a user on Instagram asked Richards for advice on how she manages her decision to abstain from alcohol while out partying or having fun last month, Richards gave it.
Richards said, “I don’t typically feel like I need anything, BUT every so often, I might have a mocktail. “I did drink non-alcoholic beer a few times this season, too,” the speaker continued. ”.
