Welcome back. As you well know by now, some don't make it.
If it helps, it took me years to quit, too. Oh, the misery I could have saved myself. Like you.
But, I won't dwell in the past nor will I forget it.
It's been nine and a half years for this low bottom drunk had a drink. And I was a bad case headed to self-destruction.
Sage words you wrote. I see myself in them, so thank you for reminding me.
It'll help this alcoholic not have that first drink today.
You can do it.
