A year ago today by this time (9 am) I was isolated and most likely several shots deep en route to drinking at least a bottle of vodka a day.
Today I have just over 11 months sober and I am grateful for the community of men (and some women) who I have met through AA. These people have had my back in some very challenging times and I could not have gone through the opposite of heaven (can’t believe you can’t use the word H E double hockey sticks here) I have experienced so far in sobriety without them.
