About Me
I've struggled with addictions since age 13; they include, smoking cigarettes, drinking, and gambling. I quit gambling over 8 years ago, but had a slip about 2 years ago and have had recent urges, which is what leads me to daily strengh. I quit drinking over 3.5 years ago-no slips. I quit smoking almost 2.5 years ago with 1 slip about 2 years ago (after I gambled I bought cigarettes and chained smoked).
