gopher Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 My parents were both alcoholics and my ex-wife is a drug addict. But, somehow this month I am celebrating 25 years of sobriety...My message for all those struggling with addictions is to hang in there and truly focus on one day at a time.

Author gopher Posted February 1, 2009 Author Share Posted February 1, 2009 Thanks all...after reading some of the other threads about addiction, I wanted to post a positive story and one that provided some hope for people struggling or the people who love them. I've really been blessed the past 25 years to have a higher quality of life than my parents and ex wife had. Link to post Share on other sites
