From one Louisianian to another
welcome and glad you are here
sharing.
I'm not familiar with your story
except for what you shared at
top.
I can't lie and tell you I hate the
taste of a good drink cause I can't.
And then to have a good drink
of whatever reason or occassion.
It's in my blood, system.
Never in my wildest dreams did
I think I had a drinking problem
back then when in my mind I
thought i could really hold my
liquor or drink u under the table.
Low and behold, alcohol caught
up with me when I least expected
it to it wiped me out.
That was some 20 yrs. ago when
family stepped in getting me help
when i couldnt.
A 28 day rehab stay receiving the
tools and knowledge of my alcoholism
set me on the path of recovery learning
to live one day at a time with out
alcohol.
Over the years I have heard and
witnessed many who have walked
thru the doors of recovery to only
return back for whatever reason to
try some more control drinking
and walk back in to let us know
that it didnt work.
That could have been me.
But for them, i havent had the
desire to step out and try it
again. At least not today.
I apply those tools and knowledge
that was so freely passed on to me
to my everyday affairs and continue
to pass it on to others.
Today is a good day to be sober.
