I didn't believe really bad stuff would ever happen to me.
Its only when I got sober and stayed that way that I realised really bad things had already happened to me and I dismissed them because I still wanted to drink.
I didn't want to be Mr Responsible. I figured I'd drink until I hit something so hard that I had no choice but to quit.
Trouble is, if you're waiting for something so bad that it scares you straight for the rest of your life that might never happen man.
I had to step and be a parent to myself.
The way I choosing to live again and again was great for an 18 yo but not a good look for someone pushing 40.
I'm glad I chose my side.
I get so much more satisfaction out of being an adult than I ever did out of living that drunken life.
I have more fun and more joy and more satisfaction now hanb I ever did back in the day.
Time to pick a side man. Make it a good choice.
