END OF MY ROPE
YOU wouldn't guess by looking at me--a quiet sort of person--that my story would be dramatic. My 11 years of sobriety weren't gained by going to meetings after work or weekends. I could've had 33 years in the program, had I stuck with it when I first started going to meetings. In 1976, I started going to AA and I rang up four years of sobriety. Life improved and I quit attending meetings. I had the attitude that AA was like medicine. When you get better, you don't need it any more. When I began drinking again, it didn't take long before I was throwing up early just so I could drink all night. I was also using a lot of speed. I was single, in my twenties, a hardcore biker, and no one could tell me what to do.
