So true, Tom. I never wanted to be the person who developed a problem and needed to get sober, but here I am 30 days AF just doing it. And I’ll be doing it for the rest of my life.

Thanks for reading. It took a long time for me to articulate this perspective. In the beginning, I just kept my nose down and did the work, and I’m still here to tell you about it.

Such truth here. I had a series of rock bottoms over two decades before I finally was so sick of feeling the way I felt that I knew I HAD to quit. I thought my life was over, even then. That was over 5 years ago and life keeps jetting better. So thankful for all the bad that finally kicked my ass into sobriety.
