This is your recovery mummy.....this is
your life. Your sobriety. It belongs to
you and no one else. Not to me, not
to ur neighbor, family or friends as
selfish as it may sound.

No one is gonna keep you sober but
yourself along with the Willingness,
Openmindedness and Honesty to do
whatever you need to do to remain
sober one day at a time.

There are many recovery options available
all who what to be successful in their own
recovery/sobriety. You will have to find what
works for you most of all.

I can share with you that I didn't choose
AA. My family did an intervention on me
27 yrs ago anf I was placed in a rehab facility
to be taught about addiction which I had
little to no clue what it was about.

They broke it down for me to understand
then gave me a program of recovery which
was AA for me to learn step by step to
incorperate in all my affairs once I was
released.

There were many suggestions passed
on to me and I listened, learned, absorbed
and applied all to the best of my sober
ability.

I'm successful in my recovery because
I continue to maintain this effective program
of recovery in my life each day. Once I received
this guideline to living a sober life I then
began to receive the gift of the Promises
as written in the Big Book of AA.

Like I shared before, this is what works
for me, but you have to find something,
a guideline, program to follow to help
yourself remain sober and live a healthy
happy successful life for you.

If it means going into rehab, out patient,
in patient, then by all means go, so you
will get all the information about alcoholism
and how it affects you from head to toe.

Then a program of recovery to
guide you every day, every step
of the way.

You don't have to be alone in this
or by urself, but you have to do this
for you.

Remember, this is what works for me.
