Great thread!
I hit my first bottom back in 1993 when I was 22. I started going to AA and "kinda" worked a program for about 6 months. Then I started smoking pot again. Within a year I was drinking. I kept drinking for another 11 years before I hit another bottom, not quite as low as the first, but enough to make me get real with myself and get serious about getting sober. So, I was 33 on February 21, 2004, my official sobriety date. Sober life is GOOD!!!
Hugs to all!
