Overview
In 2019, nearly 88,000 people died from alcohol related causes and many today still suffer from this great epidemic. Mothers, Fathers, Children, Employers and Employees of alcoholics are victims of this grave disease. And although they suffer gravely, I am here to say that no one suffers more than the alcoholic themselves. I realize that to some this is hard to understand, but if you are an addict yourself you know exactly what I mean. My book Comfortably Insane, provides 42 VALUABLE lessons that I learned. This is my own story of alcoholism. I drank myself out of military school. I drank myself out of relationships. I drank myself into insanity. Each time falling deeper and deeper into a mental abyss and skewed perspective: I always believed it was not my fault, and that I was not powerless against alcohol. I was, IN CONTROL! I gave sanity a shot. I really did. For eight years I played the part of the perfect husband, perfect worker, and perfect churchgoer. But it just didn't seem normal. Sanity didn't suite me. So, I fell back into the comfortable arms of insanity and stayed there for 10 years drinking my life away. It wasn't until I hit rock bottom that I saw the insanity for what it was - a - hiding place. It took me 10 more years to come out of that hiding place and into the light. Comfortably Insane is more than just overcoming addiction. It is about recognizing your flaws, taking ownership of them, recognizing that change is within you, and making the daily choice to do better and be better. My book provides 42 lessons learned to help you on your journey out of the hell of alcoholism.
