Until my mental obsession and physical cravings, and addiction is gone, until I have been restored to health, and sanity, I may drink alcohol...Until we are recovered, this is just a fact and all of our paths are different in how fast, or slow we get the recovery, or recovered status....
I'm not in AA so I'm not sure what the AA line is, but I never like it when recovery is made to sound like something that just happens, eventually ...HP does not mean Harry Potter.
me, you, everybody - we make it happen.
We embrace it...or we don't.
