Rock bottom for me was when i couldn't go anymore with my drinking. I had tried countless times to quit without success. Countless promises that failed. It was getting into a bad accident in Feb 90 that led me to the hospital for 10days with them removing my spleen are else i would have bled to death. It was recoverying very nicely in a few months or so just to pick up a drink and try to end my life. The progression of my disease was extremely rapid that i had no idea. It was Aug 90 that i took a hand full of pills and wanted out....Thank God my attempt failed are i wouldnt be hear to tell u about it. My family stepped in and did an intervention on me which landed me in rehab for 28 days where i picked up the tools and knowledge of recovery and how to stay sober one day at a time.

Rock Bottom is reaching that point in dispair....when words of "God Help Me" or Someone or something Help me because i cant go on any longer.

Then in that moment of lowness....something comes over u...a moment of clarity which lead u to reach out for help.
