Question TOPIC: They Had The Audacity To Ask How Much I Drank ! What's Ur Story?

Hi Im Sharon and Im An Alcoholic.

By the Grace of my HP and people
like you here in SR I havent had a drink
of alcohol since 8-11-90.

For that and you I am truely grateful.



From "Listening to the Wind"


"One day I got up as usual. The last
thing I remember was feeling so shaky
I could hardly stand up. I ate a
tablespoon of honey, hoping it would
give me the necessary sugar rush. The
next conscious memory was the emergency
room. They said I was suffering from
malnutrition. I was nearly thirty pounds
underweight. They had the audacity to ask
how much I drank! What could that possibly
have to do with anything?"


My story goes like this.....Feb 1990

I go out to a club, dancing, drinking etc.
on my way home i run off the road hitting
a concrete culvert sitting on top the
ground. EMS takes me to hospital for
10 days saving my life from a punctured
spleen, and numerous broken ribs, bones,
contusions...etc....

Go to court several yrs later to sue
construction site as cause for my
accident.

Was it that reason or was it due to
me possibly blackening out....or
was it because the blood alcohol
was well over its limit?

Some say poor construction....

I say otherwise....truthfully.

Aug.1990.

I go out to the same club....come
home after partying....horrible arguement.
tried to end my life with pills....

Family intervention took place sending
me to rehab via the back seat of a police
car....

28 day rehab stay...

Im not an Alcoholic....or was I?

Yes I am, I can truthfully say.

Whats ur story?

Thanks for letting me share.
