Albert Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing expecting a different result. So me attempting to quit on my own is crazy. I decided to go to AA . I feel like this is a huge step for me. I realize that I cannot do this myself, and that there is no shame in getting help. I’ll admit that I brushed the idea of AA off because I was embarrassed of what my command would think of me. But it doesn’t matter what they think. I have a family that I plan on being an asset to, not a burden. I’m also going to start writing in a journal to help me too. Here’s to day 1!
