At the bottom again.

The true sense of overwhelming power this disease of addiction has over me is awesome. As I sit on the side porch of this giant house tonight, I should be feeling content. The sun has just set, a mild wind is blowing, and I have my feet up on the railing, looking at a real “Working Class” neighborhood for the first time in months. And I’m sober.

Yet that feeling of emptiness, mixed with loneliness and despair, has returned. I felt it at St. Vincent’s, then again at Hazelden. It tells me that this disease never goes away, that I’m powerless over it. I’m always going to have to fight a lonely battle against it. There will be other days of loneliness and helplessness. I’ll be in treatment each day of my life, one day at a time.
