Great article! Thank you. It is me to a tee. Day 47 of sobriety, though I hate that word. I like how you describe recovery, that is more what I'm up to.

Great reflection. It speaks to how personal our journeys with alcohol all end up being.

Even with the term alcoholic, I drank a fifth a day and had alcoholic liver disease, and even then, I prefer to say I struggled with an addiction to alcohol as opposed to being an alcoholic.

Alcohol is such a poison that anyone’s decision not to consume it is worth celebrating.
