Yes we are worth it, when I was blottoed in my garage hating myself I sure could not bring myself to imagine I was worth a darn thing!

You know in AA I have heard many people speak of feeling less than, of being worthless when they were drinking, in early sobriety I really related to that, but I gained hope for myself by seeing these same people who I related with so strongly with a twinkle in their eye, a bit of a hop to thier step, helping others, not just in staying sober, but life in general, these people were good solid people that had what I wanted and they were more then willing to help me get what they had. Now I have learned that a big reason they have what they have is by giving it away just as quickly as they get it.

Great thread topic FS.......... Yes WE are worth it, but sometimes it is darn hard to see the potential when we are alone and drunk!
