In the latest episode of "420 Reasons Why I Quit Drinking Alcohol," I recount a harrowing experience from August 1983. As a teenager, I attended a party with upperclassmen, hoping to impress a boy I liked. I brought a bottle of gin, which led to a two-day bender, resulting in alcohol poisoning and significant physical harm. Despite this traumatic experience, I continued drinking for many years, believing it was necessary for fun. I want you to know that true freedom and enjoyment in life come without alcohol, and there are countless fulfilling activities that don't involve drinking. I want to offer to anyone who is looking for accountability my support I will be there for you listening, connecting, supporting you step by step and day by day. I was so grateful I had a couple people on my journey who I could turn to during my early years of sobriety. I want to be that person for you. Reach out to my cell 773-817-3446 for support. If I could do it so can you!🫵🏻 💚 Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional advice.
