Day 57 I’ve mentioned a couple books that played an important role in my first m, but failed sobriety attempt 3 years ago that lasted for 8 mo - This Naked Mind and Dry. I want to add Steven’s King The Shining to the pile. Even it is not about addiction directly, but it shines the light into some complex emotional moments. It’s also autobiographical, as I learned. “I failed at many things in life”, he thinks, “my job, marriage, fatherhood, and even alcoholism”. This one thing I desperately want to fail - his last thing. Because succeeding at mastering at my addiction made me fail too many things at life.
