Indeed Johnny that seems to be the age old question…TO be a Disease or NOT TO be a Disease…I speak of the Disease factor at times…knowing I make it a disease if I CHOOSE to pick up…once I dont I am ok….but yes…I am humbled by knowing that I am only one drink away from going back out and possibly not making it back…so…when I am at my best I am on my top game I remember where I was such a short time ago and how I dont have anyone but me to blame..no one forced me..it was always a choice to pick up that first one…2 3 4 5 6 ….. Life is good now…my disease is Sobriety and LIVING…I so hope everyone that needs it catches it… Lots of love…Mike
i suffer from addiction. whether that addiction is too drugs, alcohol, fast women, slow women, fasr cars, retail theraphy, sex, gambling it all falls under the first step. admitted i was powerless over my addiction what ever that addiction may be and admitted my life was uncontrolable over it. it’s up to me to arrrest that disease and resolve the problem i have with it. learning to live in the solution today and not being a part of the problem is the answer. the key to serenity is surrender to the fact i suffer from an addiction or addictions today. it’s up to me to live up to the standards set down in the 12 steps of NA. how you work your program is totally up to you. stay clean and be good to yourself.
In Recovery for life,
JJ
