You can get busy, actively pursuing change in your life to get and stay sober and build a life so much better that you'll look back on all this with gratitude.
The choice is yours.
Everyone will know the bad....but they won't know the good... that's the worry.
I just hope by being given sober I will neverk see that set of people again. I only ever saw them in the pub anyway....if the event leaks out, I just hope it is forgotten soon.By being good maybe I can just erase it....
I have always been nice and kind and good.the rest of the time.... so.maybe they will view.it as a ****.up... not a personality thing!
