Name: Jean

Age: 62

Sober Since: 10 / 28 / 1997

Sober For: 26 Years & 186 Days

What it was like?

I covered it well but dealt with a lot of self-loathing. I could see the writing on the wall by witnessing my oldest sibling.

What happened?

I tried to handle it myself, and every day I lost that battle until I admitted I needed help and pursued it.

What it is like now?

25 years on this sober journey now. Most difficult challenge in my life. Totally worth it.
