It led to decades of dependency, I think I was alcoholic before finishing highschool, it just jkept getting worse until i hit bottom and had to stop.
its been 5 years and I dont even feel or look like the same person, I am totally healthy, I workout a little now, I feel great.
I dont mean to come off as Mr Positive Paul, you guys know I have my negative side too, but after my child was born I have seen an even further shift in me towards being more complete, no other way to describe it.
I lay down at night with my baby and dont even have urge to dri8nk, where as 6 years ago I couldnt go two days without drinking until I puked.
Life is good on this side, and I have no intentions of ever going back.
It feels great just to be alive, i cant explain it. Moment of clarity i guess.
