I sense a certain bravado to what you wrote. Kind of like "I'm a total drunk, I dare you to find a reason to stay sober.". I used to be like that.

I certainly didn't identify with people at meetings. I didn't lose anything. Never got in serious trouble. I had to work at identifying what I had in common with people that were jailbirds or homeless. But I did. All of us made poor choices because of our drinking or drugs. All of us were sick and tired of being sick and tired.

I enjoy seeing life clearly now. I don't have to live in fear that I've done something idiotic. Or that I'll be found out.

Keep coming back.
