Hey Paddler! First off just wanted to say you cracked me up with the devils arse bit, too funny!

I sympathize with you not feeling well. Been there many times myself. I have tried to get sober short term many times and this is my at least 3rd attempt at forever sobriety.

A couple weeks ago I shared at a meeting how great I felt now, and why I needed to double up my recovery efforts at that time because I have been on cloud 9. People seemed to relate. A couple talked to me about it afterwards.

I dont drink cause I feel awful. I start again because I feel comfortable. That turns to confidence and I forget why I quit to begin with.

You know..cause I feel great and I can control it now! I was wrong again and crawled out of the devils arse for the last time.

Keep coming back
