I am a therapist. In a lot of ways this benefits my recovery because I’ve learned and I teach coping skills and I have a good understanding of mental health and addiction. However, I find that my career makes my recovery harder in some ways. Mostly it leads to so much shame that “I should know better”. It also makes it impossible for my to attend 12 step meetings in my community due to having clients in them and that would violate my requirements not to have dual relationships with clients.

I am a former Navy Hospital Corpsman and then an EMT II A on ambulances and a Trauma Center ER in Los Angeles County after the military. I had many different jobs and owned a couple of businesses for a few years. The last 13 years I worked as a Residential Advisor/Youth Counselor at a large residential facility for at risk and disadvantaged youth. I ran a dorm with 80 young men in it. I am now medically retired.

Logistics manager at an international trucking company.
Been doing it since 2003. Was always working Hard and parting harder.
Started loosing jobs due my alcoholism ten years ago.
Managed to get hired many more times and eventually drinking was my full time job, hobby, personal time, even a cut from my sleepinghours.
Went back to one of my old bosses this summer after one year sobriety and asked my position back.
Its stressful, but 12step program has helped me, I manage to calm myself down and only worry a little about tomorrows problems.
I have also picked-up my next career as a lotto millionaire, but I tend to reschedule this one every friday evening. Bit of a procrastinator here…

I’m unemployed right now. Which is why I’m trying to use it to my advantage to stay sober. So Im not sure if @$$hole and recovering monster counts as an occupation.
