I’m 53 years old. I got clean at 23. Don’t try to do it alone. Seek out therapy, AA, any and all support you can.

The sooner you begin to sort out the madness you were hostage to, that which you created on your own, and what it’s done to you mentally, emotionally, and physically the sooner you will heal.

I got clean, and my arrogance took me away from therapy, support groups, and friends. I was in control. 30 years later, while clean the entire time, I have come to see I was ANYthing but sober.

I hurt my loved ones with my selfishness, and hurt myself by denying my fears - instead constructing a Temple to the Lie I chose to live…that I was Ok, and the replacements for my past addictions were healthy, laudable, and correct.

I have lost 30 years of my life, a 20 year marriage that NEVER should have been, and the opportunity to live the life I wanted.

Do not make my mistake.
