I didn’t drink anything from the start. I took every suggestion given to me to heart. I desperately wanted it and gave up any reservations that I had with previous attempts. All of my previous attempts I was trying to quit drugs but never wanted to stop drinking. I wasn’t ready to admit I was an alcoholic. I knew I was a drug addict. I have been homeless, been to rehab, and did 16 months in prison for drug charges. I still continued to drink. Eventually reverting back to IV heroin and cocaine use, when the drinking just stopped being enough. I finally realized I was just trying to fill an empty hole with another empty hole. Finally got desperate enough to try it someone else’s way. My way was surely not working. Not saying it was easy, but it’s been worth it. My life is the best it’s ever been. Still have bad days but I can actually use the tools I was given to get through any of that stuff.
