Congrats on 30 days, that's no small feat for an alcoholic.

Years ago it was extremely important to me that I solve my alcohol problem. Of course, being me and the attitude I'd developed in my lifetime, solving my alcohol problem meant ....it was my problem and no one but me could solve it.

I had no use for AA.... great people, doing really wonderful things for others but not really for me, I knew I could find sobriety in my own way.

I hit bottom

In thirty years of drinking and drugging I tried everything I could think of to abstain, never could. Oh I'd do alright for short periods of time, but always over time got worse.

The AA program works for me today. My sobriety means more to me than thinking I have to find my own answers...do it alone. I've been humbled and I surrendered.

Good Luck and God's Peace
