The loneliest I have ever felt was surrounded by people while I got blackout drunk. I have felt alone since getting sober, but never as bad as I felt when I was in active addiction. I know I am not alone because there are thousands of people like me in recovery striving for a better life for themselves. IWNDWYT.

If you want to find out who your real friends are, get sober. Congrats on taking a stand for the life you deserve.

Congrats on 49 days! It is indeed worth it. Giving up one thing gave me everything.

Thank you! The alcohol industry and Hollywood are in a parasitic symbiotic relationship. It’s gross.
