John,
I lurked for years before I joined, and continued to drink for a bit after I set up an account. It was all part of my preparations for what I knew had to happen....putting it down. That journey isn’t here for you to go back and read, but the years and years of denial, justification, and self punishment are all part of me and what I remember when I see someone struggling. I think that type of a story is what we all share, whether it is written down or not.

In the end, all we can do is try to be a better person today than we were yesterday, and to set the same goal tomorrow. Don’t get hung up on what others think of your journey, because if you are anything like me that’s just more of the thinking that keeps you stuck.

Best wishes,
-bora
