This is the truth and the way I fell into alcoholism. Started out as fun/social and over time became solitary and a necessity. I would like to help youth avoid getting into this mentality to begin with.

Here’s a little idea to start the week. I call it “my pain and suffering fund” Anyways I’ve been putting in money I would have spent on alcohol each day. No idea how much I’ve already added but it feels so much better to see the $ than to feel it every morning. When I do drink I add 2x the next day

10+ years abusing alcohol and drugs. Luckily I never got too into the heavy drugs but my poison was vodka. Longest I've been sober since I was 14 years old. My body feels amazing, I have so much energy and all I want is to help people who need hope. I was in a dark, dark place 4 months ago. #130days

Local food market has a new wooden shelf of NA beers. Not just Athletic and ODouls, but bigger names like Lagunitas and Two Roads. I wonder if the increase in options from mainstream companies is a sign of cultural shift.
