Excerpts

Change was something that, as an active alcoholic, to which I was not very receptive. The thought of trying something new or going down an unknownpath made me very uneasy. Why? I guessthat I was at ease and comfortable to a certain extent being a drunk. I also feared rejection.After I had lost job after job and was scrapping for enough change to pay my bills, reality would occasionally set in. I do not have a job so I can'tpay my bills. I could afford my alcohol though. Bill collectors began calling me non-stop and threatening me. My heart would race every singletime. All that I had to do was drink and they would go away. I would put my cell phone on silent and then drink myself into a stupor. My credit wasperfect for years and I would always pay off my debts promptly. My drinking took me for broke however. My habit had put me into so much financial fearthat it was almost unbearable. I had lost many things along the way. I had lost two apartments, jobs, girlfriends, credit, faith and trust of bothfamily and friends. Eventually, I lost my mind.
