When I attended AA a couple of years ago, one guy said he was whistling on his way to the meeting, because us drunks were such a great bunch of people. I didn't get it then, but I do now. Almost two month ago I needed help not driving to the liquor store from work and put an end to that vicious circle. I found SR and from out of nowhere these wonderful strangers were routing for me and being more supportive than the people in my life.
We are a great bunch of people, aren't we? All of us Alcoholics/Addicts, we understand each other. That's why you deserve such love. You are one of us - no matter what stage you are at - YOU are one of US. :ghug3
