I’ve heard this one before and I heard it again today at the 7 a.m. meeting…
They say:
It’s not alcohol-wasm;
it’s alcohol-ism.
I also heard this one this morning, which I thought was great…
They say:
The only meeting you’re late to
is your first meeting.

Two years ago was my last day of daily active addiction. August 28, 2008. The next day,
I committed to detox…
The Suboxone threw me into precipitated withdrawal
and I kicked superhard, in my bedroom, for two days, until
on the third day I could drag myself out and start eating again.
Precipitated withdrawal isn’t like “normal” kicking. It’s like
all 10-15 days of normal kicking packed into two.
I need to remember these facts.
It took me three weeks before I made it to my first meeting…
Two days after my son’s 11th birthday.
Late, but much better late than never.
