One Approach May Not Fit All

Here I Stand At The Crossroads   "It is said that the greatest sinners make the greatest lovers." Better put, the recovered sick become the most healthy. So, here I stand at the crossroads. Four years from now, if I persistently do the next right thing, I believe the possibilities are limitless. I could be a writer, a teacher, a lawyer, a priest.  All I know is I will have a serenity and peace of mind that will illuminate my life and allow me to help others. The feeling of love and connectedness I have felt will become perpetual so that I will out-distance my wildest dreams; and look back one day and realize that the hardest times in my life were the most important.    Todd - Sober 2006

     

"Others’ ideas weighed on me and the use of alcohol was not a means to party. It was a cause. A cause against the injustices of society. Surely, they would never understand my conflict. My façade was one of rebellion obtained through an empty drink. A chaotic life dependent on my feelings of helplessness and desperate attempts to regain a sense of identity and control."        - A.G.F.

 

 

"I have come to realize that others are going to be exactly who they are regardless of my opinions or judgments of them. All that I influence is my behavior and response.  When I was drinking and drugging I arranged life so that it would best fit my thinking. This was my world as an addict. Life had to be manipulated; otherwise I would see that my behavior did not make sense." - J.T. 

   

"What complicates my drinking or drug use is the fear of losing the memory  of who I am and who I am suppose to be... After a night out I would feel unworthy of talking with God, or of doing well in life.  As I began to get sober I realized God does not ask me to be perfect, He just asks me to show up."   - T.D.
