About Me
Once an addict, always an addict? NO! I am not an addict; I was an addict. I refuse to let my yesterday define my tomorrow.

I can't sit and listen to "war stories" and cussing and blaming, it triggered me. Also, I don't believe in "disease" aspect of it, so..... Also, this higher power thing, OH NO, the higher power is God, period. There were people in mine naming things and other people their higher power.
