@keepmeokay i went & told kyle & everyone i was only staying 2 weeks. something happened around day 7 when i went to my first AA meeting. a miracle, really.
from there - i was willing to stay as long as they suggested bc my way got me there and it was time to listen to other people for once
@keepmeokay i ended up staying 9 months in cali away from everyone. family, friends, etc. i didn’t want to leave towards the end. i still go visit every year. it gave me a life i always dreamed of and could have never had if i done it “my way”. i always thought i knew best. i didnt know shit
