Today marks 11 years since I quit drinking! Alcohol was a major part of my life. But it got to the point where it was creating unmanagable problems. I hurt a lot of people, including people I loved, and had truly made a mess of my life. So I gave it up, cold turkey, and have never looked back. Giving up alcohol didn't get rid of all of my problems, but it did get rid of all my alcohol-related problems. Here's to another 11 years!
