Exercise has to be the best cure

At least for me it is. It seems when I exercise that things come more into focus. And the harder I drive myself, the better I feel about myself. I do alot of hiking and it helps me more than any other thing to stay sober. When my heart starts to really rev up and my shirt is drenched with sweat(I know, not exactly a flattering image)...that is when I can feel the poison leaving through my pores and my mind filtering out all the temptations. Its when I am idle...that I am in trouble. When I am bored or not doing something that demands full attention physically and mentally. I just gotta say, for me, exercise has been a big contributor to my staying sober and I hope others out there give it a try and see if it works for them.
