Extremely enthusiastic member, Tony got clean in New York City.
He started using at 12 years old and got clean at age 42. He was a 42 year old child. He had to learn the language of recovery the same way a baby has to learn to talk.
Tony bounced in and out of the Program for 18 months.
He says a great way to tell if you are an addict is to ask yourself this question:
"Did you ever spend all your money on drugs?"
"If you don't use, your life can get better...a day at a time."
After he got sober his addiction changed addresses.
He has to pay attention to his disease of addiction.
Recovery is a loving and caring process.
