you see people every day in recovery . we dont wear signs saying,"look at me- im an ex drunk/druggie!!"
when i had a year clean/sober,i wasnt who i used to be.
today im not who i was back then at a year.

the mileage varies

p.s.
just my opinion but i read fears and insecurities coming out as anger,resentment,ego, and pride.
