Hello, everybody. My name is Bernard period for almost 40

Hello, everybody. My name is Bernard period for almost 40 years. I've let alcohol and substances, rule my life it was simply by choice. Because I thought I'm getting high and getting drunk was fun. After the recreational times and Fridays and the weekends were done. It was an everyday thing. It became my lifestyle. I destroyed my military career and landed in prison for over twenty two years. I got out of prison established myself.And society got married.Bought achieve the great career and it just took one smoke and I destroyed everything. I lost my home, my wife.My children all my possessions and became homeless and for the past 4 years.I've been out in the street. I went to rehab in Virginia and did well and did a lifestyle recovery program and did excellent.But came back to my old surroundings and failed again. Finally, I decided to get away from o.Ld people places and thanks and move to another state with nothing but the clothes on my back. I didn't even have a pair clean underwear.Nobody's love lean on.Or talk you know I don't want to but I knew one thing that I was not gonna do any drugs or alcohol. I stand before the community today to say whatever you're going through wherever you're at in this life.Wherever you reading your diction , you can do it. I am now, a chief mechanic in a production facility.I've been sober and clean for the past two months with ease not even a cigarette period . I am happy to be me clean and sober. So wherever you are in this life and in your addiction. I just want whoever you are to know it's. It's all real to Lil sober and clean and it feels good. I have no longer a slave to my addiction.
I am the rudder that steers my life. And you can making more money than I.Ever have in my lifetime and having a bowl being clean and sober. I just wanted to give some encouragement today to those who are struggling and introduced myself to the entire community. I welcome all comments support, encouragement guidance and maybe a shoulder to cry on whenever now. And then when I need it period I hope do you hear from The community.
