Alcohol ...all alcohol or mind altering
drugs is poison to me. When i see
liquor, any shape form, i see the
skulls and cross bones on the
bottle.....because that is exactly
what it is.

Poison kills and that is what alcohol
was trying to do to me. My last
episoide with drinking almost cost
me my life....

Family intervention saved my life

I spent 28 days in rehab recieving
the tools and knowledge of my
disease and set me on the path
of recovery learning to live one
day at a time without alcohol.

For that and my family Im truely
grateful.

Do people with Diabeties or cancer
go around saying they r. No....they
have a disease and it can be treated
and lived with by following simple
steps each day to keep it at bay,,,

Alcohlics or drug addiicts dont broad
cast that they r one, because others
dont understand it being a disease
and can be treatable.

We use the AA or NA ...anonymous.

Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcatics
anonymous .

Some people think that just because
we r alcoholics or drug addicts that
we lost everything or in the gutter....

Not everyone has lost it all...there
are just too many people , different
races, religion, etc with an addiction.
And help is available to us all.

I dont wear a label across my
forehead advertising I am an
alcoholic.

So no one know my situation
ecept people in the program
and those outside that i wish
them to know.

Im in recovery because i have
a drinking problem and this program
of 12steps allows me to learn to
live one day at a time without
drinking. And to help the next
person in just entering recovery
by sharing my own ESH with them.
