    I can't say that I know what it feels like to go through what you did. BUT, My best friend does. I wont go into details of his story as it's not my place to say. But I watched him self destruct, I didn't know how to help him and every time I or one of his sons tried he would shut us out. I will say he also hit rock bottom and is recovering. So much so he is going to school for addiction counseling.

    I hope everything works out for him. I learned pretty early in my sobriety that helping others seemed to help me. Having a very good idea of what someone else is either going through or has been through gives you a perspective that most can not understand until you've been down that path.

    Congrats on your sobriety Sir. It can be so rewarding and amazingly difficult all at the same time. I celebrated my lucky 13 last week.
