I can see light at the end of this dark hallway.

I want to thank all of you nutcases for all the support you have given me while I go through this crises. I want you to know that I am now clean 30years, 5 months, and 15 days (but who is counting, right? haha) This monster has reared it's head from time to time, but never this strongly. I have been going to meeting every day (except the holiday) and with the support, I have beaten this again and will continue to do so.

Then again, it's Christmas and I have a large family. Time to put on my fancy anxiety. haha

My love to you all

Aaron
