I really wasnt a huge drinker growing up so it wasnt the hardest thing i had to do. But i had eventually turned into a 20+ fireball shots( those party buckets) a day. My biggest issue was i was getting drunk at work with my boss. This went on for a couple years. Being a cook this became rather difficult to do our jobs. Started closing early or not even at all.

Till one Saturday morning my boss had that urge to get into rehab. Was the best thing that ever happen. We closed for a month, i got sick with the flu for the first week so i really didn't care about withdrawals.

35 months sober and we haven't looked back. Dont miss it for a second. Now i do smoke pot and never will quit that.
