Addiction in America

I'm fairly open about my experiences here on LoT but I never have shared what a very serious struggle getting sober was for me and how it took me over 10 years to get to where I'm at now. I'm not inclined to do that here because, frankly, if you haven't been through it you wouldn't understand. That's where AA meetings are so helpful. You don't have to "prove your point" first, you can just concentrate on getting and staying sober. It saved my ass and literally my life.

The end.
