This time 6 months ago I decided for the last time to give up alcohol. 5 days later I started my treatment program at Caron in central PA. At that time I was an absolute mess. I was in a constant state of relapse, I was emotionally and mentally screwed,.And physically I was just so beaten down and exhausted, from trying to keep up with the charade that is addiction, and everything that goes along with it. This is the first time I’ve been sober this long since I was probably 14. It’s just the smallest step towards recovery, but I feel a lot better than I did 6 months ago. I still have every life problem that I had back then, sobriety doesn’t magically fix all that. All it does is give us a clear head and the strength to hit right back when life punches us in the mouth, (which it absolutely will).
I really only write this here, to thank all of you for helping me, and being a huge part of the everyday fight that is addiction. It does get easier though I promise.
Love ya’s
This is so cool, man. I really respect and admire the fact that you not only decided you were sick and tired of the game but you got some help to get and stay sober. Not a lot of people actually follow through with that so kudos to you!
That’s a sweet looking token you have there @Jasty2. Way to crack on with sobriety. I look forward to bagging my own token in 5 months time. Let’s goooo!
Bravo 
keep going
