While I can. In serious pain & still have to get to the library sometime today. Still sober, not that it will ever change now. Too focused on picking up the pieces to go down that path.

Wow! Way to go, August!

I'm sorry you're in pain, though

I've been out of work and looking for a new job. "That path" seems to be in front of me all too often these days. I haven't gone down it but my AV is working overtime on me. It never ends well so I'm still clean ... but it's been hard.

Hope all is well with you and thank you for the nudge to get me posting again.

That path is for your steps alone.

Thanx guys. Don't see any relief in the pain, sadly. Being stuck here w\ no medical is killing me.

((((AugustWest)))) Congrats on your sobriety! I, too have been following your posts since signing up to SR in September, and I admire your fight and your resolve, August!

I truly hope your pain subsides and that you continue to reap the benefits of sobriety even if it is in the smallest ways!!

The path of sobriety can be scary and unpredictable, but in no way does it compare to the predictable, abysmal, tragic path of addiction! Keep up the good work!!
