So close Leo...!! I can almost taste it!

People have bottoms usually. The bottom is the bottom, everyone's is different. I didn't lose anything, didn't fail out of school, lose a job, or a family, never got arrested etc...

Most bottoms though do have one thing in common and that's usually coming to the end of self. You just can't stand where you are anymore. Bottoms are emotional, mental, spiritual. Usually "the breaking point"

You don't have to hit one to get sober although it helps to give you a push.
You can still hit "bottom" in sobriety too, I have.

Don't worry about "is this my bottom" or "when will I hit bottom." Chances are if you've decided you might need to quit drinking (etc.) you have already come to some kind of bottom. Just acknowledge that little bit.

Keep us posted!!! (((((((Caretaker Leo)))))))
