Nevertheless, I don’t plan on losing any sleep over it. It’s my sobriety and I love it. Every day, I’m feeling better and better. Thanks all.
While I don't watch them except on the rarest of occasions anymore, I have heard it on shows like E! News that "rehab is chic" and other asinine stuff....while I just laugh and shake my head, it is pretty stupid if our culture makes light or jabs at people getting help - or lauds it as cool or something, not to be taken seriously but as some weird celeb status.
Keep going on your sober trek, friend.
