  1. I don't have a big boffo speech or anything to celebrate 10 years of #Sobriety from alcohol. All I really want to say is that anyone can find themselves struggling with a dependency, regardless of any personal or cultural variable. And it is not a moral failing. It is a mental aberration. It is no choice. It becomes an absence of choice.

    If you are struggling with addiction, please know that you are not bad, you are not hopeless, and you are not alone. I could not have survived to make it to this point without other addicts helping me. You are not alone. Please, reach out. You are worth it.

    My gratitude is boundless. My mother continues to support me every day and is a constant source of wisdom. And without my sister taking care of me for those first 6 or so years, I would never have stuck it out. All my friends and family in recovery, especially those who we've lost along the way - I honor and cherish your deeds, words and memories.

    Lots of love to you all.

  2. My mum is taking me out to sushi lunch and cake to celebrate my 10th #SobrietyDay which is on Sunday. #SoberLife #ODAAT

    One of my recovery traditions is the Red Quarter, or Stop Sign. It's a quarter that's been painted red that I keep with me always. The program I went through was started over 50 years ago, and they would give men leaving the center a red quarter to act as a way to remind you - as you looked in your pocket for a quarter to call your dealer from a pay phone - to stop and think about what you're about to do. Even when I got it in 2014, they were already joking about how rare pay phones had become. I think about it every time I see one, which is exceedingly rare. #SoberLife #ODAAT

  4. You know, Doug Ford's obsession with alcohol is really fucking insulting, and I don't even live in his province. #CanPol #SoberLife #ODAAT

  5. 2 years sober from alcohol... I didn't think it was possible

    And I'm not sure if I could have done it without the support of my wife, my friends, and AA

    My heart has been recovering and no longer need an ablation, at least for now ☺️

  6. I never thought I'd make it this far but part of me wonders if it's worth it considering all of the hate and terror organizations out there and no rights to our own bodies. The men, the Christian's, and the nazi groups, I'm scared to leave the house; might be a good time to pick up drinking again.

  7. I got 1/4 through a Shirley temple before i realized it didn't taste right

    I was served an alcoholic drink when I asked for a non alcoholic drink

    245 days of sobriety just got ruined and it wasn't my choice 💔

    I'm struggling to fight the urge to start sobbing in the club

  8. I spend a lot of time in my head(s). This is a much more productive activity than it used to be.
