My name is Kenny, and I'm an alcoholic.

I was thinking last night of the saying we often hear at meetings: "We stood at the turning point." I had nowhere else to go! I'd run out of options. I couldn't drink and couldn't not drink. That's a messed up place to be! Life was hard, and I thought this would be also. This program is so simple it's hard. What it took for me is willingness. I needed to be willing to go to any lengths to get sober. I wanted to be sober more than I wanted to be drunk. Through this awesome program and good people I have found what I have been looking for and chasing all my life . peace of mind! I could never find in alcohol what I found in AA. What a rush! Thanks for my sobriety. I'm going to do what I did my first day in AA . stay right here!
