Memoirs is about those who do in fact flee the challenge of life and seek refuge, in their case not in a bottle but rather in the nuthouse. Of course, enough bottle and the nuthouse (or prison or death) is just one more slip away. As a shrink I knew and worked with many people who were addicted, especially to booze. In fact, I often took them to their first AA meeting, something few shrinks do. No, I wasn't a member, but there are open meetings. I would try to arrange for one of my other clients who was living sober to be there for that same meeting. Funny coincidence...NOT! I would just say, "Hey Matt, this is Cathy.

Step one has to be taken on an emotional level.

We explore the phrase that “an attitude of gratitude is a prayer unto God” Humility is like underwear, essential unless it shows, then its indecent. My very favorite definition of humility is given by one of our co-founders, Dr. Bob Smith who claims humility to be, “A clear understanding of who and what we are followed by a sincere attempt to become what we could be.”  I would offer that while many people in A.A. would suggest that the fourth and fifth step show us who we are, I believe that what those steps actually achieve are showing us who we are not.  I would further offer that in Step Six and Seven, we become willing to let go of who we are not, which will then begin the process of finding out who we are.  Michelangelo said, “Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it.”  Obviously, the process of sculpting involves finding the statue within the stone by cutting away all the pieces that are blocking its truth.  Similarly, in the alcoholic, the step work chips away at all the falsities that are blocking the prospect form God’s love, that he may come to find his truth.

My very favorite definition of humility is given by one of our co-founders, Dr. Bob Smith who claims humility to be, “A clear understanding of who and what we are followed by a sincere attempt to become what we could be.”  I would offer that while many people in A.A. would suggest that the fourth and fifth step show us who we are, I believe that what those steps actually achieve are showing us who we are not.  I would further offer that in Step Six and Seven, we become willing to let go of who we are not, which will then begin the process of finding out who we are.  Michelangelo said, “Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it.”  Obviously, the process of sculpting involves finding the statue within the stone by cutting away all the pieces that are blocking its truth.  Similarly, in the alcoholic, the step work chips away at all the falsities that are blocking the prospect form God’s love, that he may come to find his truth.

Mr. Meadows acted upon his desire to see a new sober living option for men and women in Huntington, WV that have recently hit the lowest points of their lives. These men and women have made the decision to overcome an addiction, are starting their lives over after completing a substance abuse program or after incarceration due to criminal behaviors related to drugs and/or alcohol. Mr. Meadow's passion to begin this exciting new program was birthed through his own triumph over addictions and the impact that a relationship with Jesus Christ made in his recovery. Mr. Meadows offers a hands-on approach to the men that live at The Life house. He is able to stand before each participant and show, through his own life, that a better life is available after one has allowed drugs and alcohol to tear them apart. He is able to influence the men from a position of example instead of a new rule enforcer. Mr. Meadows himself struggled with addictions for 24 years. It was after his last period of incarceration that he was able to begin his own journey of sobriety. After re-entering society Mr. Meadows committed himself to never look back and to help others accomplish similar personal victories. During his recovery process, which began in 2008, Mr. Meadows has worked at a local recovery program, became a Men's Chaplain, completed a course in Pastoral Counseling,(ACPE) and achieved his Degree from Mountwest Community and Technical College (emphasis in pastoral care). He credits his continued success to God, the support that has been available to him through local Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous programs, friends and family, and the availability of sober living facilities.   Watch "ROCKY MEADOWS" on YouTube ROCKY MEADOWS: http://youtu.be/cll9SinshFY 00:02:00Rum RadionoA.A. shares,A.A.SPONSORSHIP,ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS,attain sobriety,God and the DevilThe first facility of The Life house opened in January 2012 by Raymond "Rocky" Meadows.

The joy that Susanne feels in her new life led her to become involved as a lead advocate with the grassroots movement Heroes in Recovery in 2012. She says that this organization is where her inspiration for helping others to achieve sobriety found its start. Her goal now is to help others to achieve sobriety and remind the public to have acceptance and tolerance for those who seek help for addiction or mental health problems. “It would be my dream come true to see people who need help get treatment without feeling shame or guilt and to see the world have tolerance and understanding for the disease of addiction,” Susanne says.  She became a certified Sober Coach and certified Arise Interventionist and is doing a lot of successful interventions all over the United States.

He quit using drugs and alcohol on April 15, 1993, and has been sober ever since. In the process of rebuilding his life, Todd realized traditional recovery programs weren’t enough. He needed something more. He chose the most grueling sport imaginable, the Ironman Triathlon (a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, and 26.2 mile full marathon run). Todd ran his first triathlon in 1999 and has never stopped. In 2001, his experience with running triathlon events and seeing how it inspired others on their road to sobriety, led him to form the nonprofit organization Racing for Recovery®.

I was at the Playboy Mansion for the Millennium New Years Eve party.  (Pictures of all this are on my web site.) I was sober during this time. This is when I took a serious interest in helping the homeless.   The new books reflect those experiences. I am fine now, drug and pain free and promoting the new books for The Love Rescue Me Trilogy.

The death of my daughter I felt at the time was so painful that it made me mentally disassociate going inward instead of outward and it caused me to seek something to numb the hurt that I felt not only from the death of my Layla, but of all the pain I had been thru prior as well. I just had to forget, so I turned heavily to substance abuse. I never expected to get as bad as I did, I just couldn't deal with what I felt, so I continued to turn even more into an animal than I had felt I already was.

I am currently clean and sober since June 01, 2010. I just got my license back and bought a car. I am also looking into going to school in the fall for alcohol and drug addiction counseling. I have a Recovery page on Facebook called Breaking the Chains of Addiction. I totally believe that the 12 step program of AA / NA works if you will commit to the program fully! However, it will not work without your higher power (mine being God).

It is important to hear that AA members, not counselors, not judges, not treatment centers told me what I was, the fellowship is amazing in so many ways, it is also flawed.    My first (real) sponsor was picked for me. The two I picked previously seemed to know less about what to do now that I was a few days sober than I did. When folks said "just don't drink" I thought I was in one more place that I would fail. Then at 60 days or so I ran into an old friend in a meeting. His example proved more powerful than any rhetoric I was hearing (or any real truth for that fact- I wasn't open) He introduced me to the man who would take me through the steps. The first thing he did was point me to the book. I was 22 years old and had questions. Questions in AA where I was were often interpreted as a lack of faith. Jack put me on page 44 in We Agnostics (If when you honestly want to....) I felt sunk when the solution was presented a few words later (must find a spiritual way of life). So we talked, smoked cigarettes, drank coffee, and spoke some more. Jack opened up his story to me. He offered no suggestions, no instructions, no God box, he opened up himself.

Blindness made him see Hello my Name is Steve C for me Step meetings are like Church for me it’s like a school I learn the things I learn then go out an practice them. I personally like the movie bucket list an also have one when I went blind in prison I asked God what He could do with a sober blind person... So here is my story please read.   May I please share to you to know about me? I went totally blind while in Prison from a Botched surgery back in 97 ten months into Recovery. Sucks, but doable I totally wasted 9 an half years locked up Was an ex-con, Biker, drug addict , White Supremacist as well as was a very Violent drunk and Man what a Past.

I am 64 years old and have been sober for 27 years, since the day I came out of treatment in 1986 I have been right in the middle of Alcoholics Anonymous. I am what one would call a big book thumper as it is not been necessary for me to try any other methods to get and stay sober. I am still very active in sponsoring other alcoholics and have been given a life beyond what I probably deserve.   I quit drinking when I was 37 years old and retired when I was 50. I owned my own company and I applied a great deal of what I've learned in Alcoholics Anonymous to how I ran that company. It was because of that change in my business model that I was fortunate to be able to retire as young as I did. I now live a very peaceful life on a small river in the mountains of the Columbia River Gorge with my wife Traci and our two dogs. I have three wonderful children and six grandchildren all of whom live close enough that I see them regularly.   My children all watched me get sober and they know what it looks like to have a drunken dad versus a sober dad. I have been blessed.   Rowdy Rum, It’s where the sage, the wise, and the fool, engage in the recovery duel   Mike is the undisputed Captain of the Rowdy Rum a Face Book Phenomenon of addiction of recovery chat, Mike is a Big Book thumper and lives by rule 62. Mike runs a tight ship that guarantees the veneer of civility.   Rowdy Rum, It’s where the sage, the wise, and the fool, engage in the recovery duel   In a very short period of time they have over 3000 participating members the difference that makes a bit unique is that they encourage the different opinions on how it works.

I came to the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous because my wife had become unmanageable. She had insisted that I was an alcoholic; I insisted I was not, no way, no how.

From the outside, it looks like a very normal life. It would appear that I simply operate a strictly therapeutic massage practice, working with other unexceptional looking massage therapists in discrete commercial location.   Alkies and addicts have a difficult time staying clean and sober in LEGITIMATE jobs - let alone illegal ones - so I feel it's best for my sobriety to leave. The expungement of my conviction will be complete in about two weeks and I finally be able to leave this line of work. I will always participate in the clean and sober group to help others like me. Sex workers don't to feel ashamed, alone, strung out and hopeless.

While pushing a shopping cart one day, his heart stopped because of the drugs he regularly used. He awakened three months later after an induced coma in the intensive care unit at Summit Hospital with a scar on his chest indicative of the open heart surgery he had undergone. He was later told that he nearly died on the operating table.   That was the turning point in his life. Today he offers support to recovering addicts and has started what has been called the best recovery group on facebook, Hope Fiends . Mr. Givens has written two books. "The Dopeless Hope Fiend" is Mr. Givens' story. It is an inspirational chronology of his journey to recovery. His second book "Words" is a collection of poetry and short stories written by Mike.
