I had 7 years of sobriety on the 13th. I remember being annoyed it wasnt the 12 so my date could have been 12/12/12. I could share my story but it would bore people. Anyone who uses 12 steps probably has heard it before. I am not the same person I used to be.

Congratulations!! 7 years is an eternity! Good job!

You should share your story. I am sure it would help someone and probably several someones.

I think its symbolic that it's on the 13th. You were going against the stream, eg the symbolism to beat the odds.
Im with bp that you story would not be old hat to anyone.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
