Howdy Everyone,

I have strep, boo! So, I'm missing AA meetings, but I'm doing my reading and making calls. If all goes as planned this Friday 19th I will have 90 days clean and sober off alcohol & drugs.

I was a habitual pot smoker, meaning I started at 9 am and stopped when I went to sleep. I blacked out at all social events, because I drank to take the edge off of social anxiety. Today, I do not take one fourth the valium I used to because I'm not anxious. My medication works so much better. I don't wake up with a laundry list of people I need to apoloqize to for my behaviour. I still have some insane thoughts, BUT I do not have the insane actions that used to follow up the thoughts.

If I can do it, so can you. I was a heavy user for almost 30 years.

Peace & Hugs,

TnT
