Knowing my life has been destroyed from alcohol & drugs has never stopped me from picking back up. I have been in mental institutions, sentenced to one of the worst county jails in the country, DUI's, shot at, stabbed, homeless, attempted suicide ect.... So if I lose my job tomorrow because I didn't show up because I was hungover it will not be the end of the world.I guess I just don't want it bad enough or I'm "constitutionally incapable of being honest". That was my personal favorite line from mainstream AA'ers.
