Good job David. 2 suggestions that have worked well for me. Stay connected, via zoom meetings (for now), phone calls and the book, daily. I have found the #1 reason for people going out is drifting away from the herd. They stopped going to meetings. I've heard it many times from those who come back with arrows in their ass. Your mind will start telling you it's ok to drink. And secondly, there is nothing going on in your life that a drink will fix. Most likely it will make it worse. Good luck my brother..

When I first got sober at 29, it was nothing to work a full day, then walk to a meeting, every day . I'm 70 now, almost blind and lame from an auto/pedestrain accident so I don't get around like I used to. BUT.... how wonderful is it that I can go to a speakers meeting every day, anytime I want by going to KZfaq. Thank you KZfaq and all the generous posters out there that pulled my bacon out of the fire many many times. I'm very greatful.

@dantean 3 жыл бұрын

His humility is inspiring in itself! He's one of the biggest film stars in the world and he opens himself up to strangers. It's easy to imagine how many people in HIS position with EXACTLY his problem would never dream of standing in front of their "lessers" and saying "I'm not a Hollywood star, I'm an EFFing drunk just like all of you!" That takes courage a lot of people don't have.

Thank you so much Mr. Hopkins, you broke your anonymity and that is yours to do. It has helped a lot of people. When I came in around 1983 Betty Ford and Joan Kennedy showed me the way up in Dallas, Texas. If those two women could admit they had a drinking problem then maybe I could too. Anonymity is the foundation of our program, however, it is a useful tool to use as well. You are such a great guy as well as in your profession.

Just happened upon this randomly. There was alcoholism in my family, and I married one (and divorced, twice, then he passed away of heart issues a few years ago. He did stop the drinking, thanks be to God). My weakness was bad relationships, not alcohol. Whatever our problems, God has an answer, when we finally listen! This is a wonderful speech and I applaud all who are working the steps, one day at a time! God bless you!

Thank you for sharing. Alcoholism/addiction doesn't discriminate. Doesn't care if you have a deep-water dock with a yacht and servants or you're living in a shed with a leaky roof. It affects all colours, education levels, social status, IQ, or any other metric. It is the great equalizer and is a spirtual sickness. Very good to hear you.

Alcoholism may be the most misunderstood fatal condition known to mankind. I also believe the same to be true about AA itself. The “steps” are a design for living that would benefit anyone, not just the alcoholic. What most people fail to realize, is that people in AA represent every walk of life from Airline Pilots to Zoologists. Glad you enjoyed Tony’s talk!

6 days sober. I'm looking into AA and planning to attend some online meetings on my days off. Wish me luck!

Good luck man. I'm about the same. You might be about 2 weeks now.

@@p1nesap 2 weeks sober today. It is funny how I've made excuses not to stop my entire drinking career lol and now it is so easy to just say no. Well it has only been 2 weeks. I imagine it will get more difficult with time but I'm ready to face it! Good luck to you as well!

Found AA things on KZfaq as we trudge our roads to happy destiny amid COVID happenings globally. I am so grateful to be a sober 18 Year member. A Brit living in CA since 1981 and so glad I discovered AA on KZfaq. A meeting a day keeps the alcohol away!

Walked into the rooms oct. 16th 2004......and I keep coming back. These open talks are great if you can get to a meeting. Prayers to those who still suffer.
