I am fairly new to this board and the program. I am still a bit confused about "hit the bottom". The only actual bottom that I can see that would be everyones bottom would be death...and I don't think thats what we are talking about.
Chy..you mentioned you were close to bottom but hadn't reached it. Could you please explain to me what that means? What else were you willing to go through...but didn't... because you realized you needed help?
Isn't "bottom" when we stop our destructive path and get on the recovery road? Wouldn't an intervention then be someones bottom sometimes? For some it wouldn't be.......maybe it would take jail, homelessness or even loss of life. The addict ultimately makes the decision in all cases.
