Hi - I'm a recovered alcoholic. My sobriety date is October 8, 2017. I got sober from alcohol by going through the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous through the Big Book Awakening. Writing, art, and creative pursuits have been a meaningful part of my recovery. My solution is a spiritual solution. I know that's not popular but its the only one that has worked for me.
PS: You ARE worthy of doing something different.✨
