Good afternoon, my name is Darry B. An I'm an addict. I have 11 months 12 days clean and I'm 18 days away from celebrating my FIRST miracle year. I have to say I'm proud of myself and always knew I had to change my way of thinking in order to begin to recover. I have a sponsor and we're about to begin step 2 of the N? Fellowship. I just wanted to encourage anyone newer than myself that there is a better way to live and you can find it if your willing to be honest about your addiction and surrender to your disease. Please know that in surrendering, you empower yourself and allow the healing process to begin....

No matter what, just don't use!!!!

Darry B.
