Fitz,

Sorry to hear about your troubles. I can relate to the debt, lost relationships, and lost possessions, and I'm only 29! I'm coming up on 18 months sober, and while my finances are still taking a hit, my life is better in a lot of ways. For example, I still have a "non-vomit" streak going from all the way back when I stopped drinking in 2010. When I was drinking heavily, I could vomit or dry heave everyday, all day sometimes. So even if I can just wake up without a hangover and without hugging the toilet, I'm light years ahead of where I was 18 months ago. Keep up the good fight and look for the smaller things in life that make sobriety worth it if you have to.
