When I became a member of AA doing service work I became a member of society again. I was putting back something that society in the form of AA had given me.
Great blog. Keep it up.

I guess this is a little late, but better late than never, I feel that same way everyday, I just wish I could feel that way and not have a drink to make it go away.

I’ve also had people look down on me for having stopped. I didn’t change my phone number when I stopped drinking and drugging, but I did stop going to my old haunts and hanging out with some of my drinking buddies. My father-in-law, who is sober for about 15 years, told me that if I didn’t want to slip I should avoid slippery places.

Comment on Running from the Past by James

I run from my past too. Sometimes, I feel like I’m trying so hard to get away from it that I forget where it is and run right back into it again. Then I remember that as long as I keep it in the past, that I don’t have to be that person anymore. Good luck with your continued recovery.
