I am a recovering addict and alcoholic with almost three years of sobriety. It was not easy to give up by any means. It took hard work dedication and the want to do it for myself and my family. I owe alot to heath and fitness, my career as a union electrician and the people I surround myself with. Just wanted to give props to everyone giving it a chance like myself. I now enjoy life to the fullest without having to numb myself anymore. Life is beautiful manageable and fun with the right ingredients for it. Congrats everyone 👏 giving it a shot one day at a time.

    I thought giving up drinking would be the death of fun. It was liberation.
