Drinking and drugs numbed pain for so long. Until it didn't. Then it caused even more. No one knows what another's rock bottom is. Being sick and tired of being sick and tired is what got me to seek help. My avenue was AA. Everyone is different in their own approach. For me it has thus far worked.

Not the person I was a year ago. Still a work in progress, but progress continues to be made. Addicts can always go pro, and can also retire early. My life is more precious to me now than ever. There's hope if you are ready.
