No one else can get me sober. I must suffer the pain to get here. I must be willing to change. I must do the work. I must get selfish about my recovery. I must take the leap of faith to trust God to restore me to sanity. I must help others in order to

When I started down this road to recovery, I thought it was only to figure out how to not drink. That, in itself, was a steep mountain to climb. The people guiding me assured me that there is so much more to recovery than abstinence. They promised me a beautiful life. I’m happy to report

When things are going well for me, it’s easy to forget how I got this far. It wasn’t easy to get this far. My path was lit by others who were trying to live the right way. When I try to live my life without God’s Help, I tend to wander into trouble and I
