Congrats Chris! Welcome aboard. Keep writing, it really works. Others can use your vast experience in their own efforts. Efforts to quit and efforts to say the course. For me, all I have to do is think of where alcohol has taken me and I run for the hills! Change everything about your routine. Begin a completely new and empowering one. This would be a great time for a healthy routine. Get lost in pampering yourself. Catch up on all that you have deprived yourself. Cherish the withdraw symptoms for they will motivate you. Most of all, enjoy the freedom. Prayers
