Sober: My Journey to Recovery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781613145784)

Alcohol started off as a friend that helped me relax and socialize. It slowly evolved into this manipulative monster that controlled me. As they say in the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, "I had a drink and then a drink had me." As I tried to cope with my divorce and other life stressors, I leaned on alcohol more and more. A year passed, and I could count on one hand the number of days I didn't consume some form of alcohol. I regularly showed up to work hungover as I isolated from the world and spent all of my free time with my drink of choice. I was dying inside.

In these pages you will walk through my journey from the depths of my disease to freedom through sobriety. You will see how my relationship with God grew as I learned to cling to Him, acknowledging that He is the only power greater than my disease of alcoholism. God helped loosen the grip alcohol had on me so that I could find Him. God led me to freedom.
