I feared that I'd never quit yet I always wanted to.

I was another stop or die conversion. but I can;t recommend that cos some people don't make it that way

I think it's about what part of your mind/life you feed - the drinking side or the other side.

I wanted to do more with my life than what I'd allowed myself to do for decades.
I wanted the things I saw other people here at SR had.

I had to believe them when they said it could be done.
I had to believe them when they said the rewards may not be instant - they may take months - but they do come.
I had to believe them when they said the key to staying sober is to build a life you don't want to escape from

all those beliefs came true for me.
