    Each time you go to the hospital its for a different reason, and it’s not a condition that you willingly place yourself in in life to not be feeling well and to not need to go to the hospital.

    Learning from Relapse …

    I started getting sober 2006, and for the most part maintained sobriety, and regular attendance at AA meetings beginning 2011.

So start with simple goals whether…

    I’m at the DMV waiting in line to get a new drivers license. It’s so important to keep up with all your requirements, still need the Real ID to travel and a passport, seems like when you give up on living life all things fall by the wayside, including “all your requirements.” — Recently I’ve…

    Right now it’s about you, hanging up my self pity hat, and detailed disclosures of lesser moments of faith and confidence in life.
