I tell you what. There is nothing like the laughter shared between two recovering addicts. It sounds crazy, I know. But if you are an alcoholic, or an addict, you know what I’m talking about. Countless nights we would sit around our addiction treatment center and just laugh until our ribs hurt. Swapping stories about our drug addiction, swapping horrible stories about interventions, about how scared we were when we were intervened on. I know this sounds goofy, to laugh at this stuff, but it really helped me get through my addiction treatment center. I needed the laughter. I know drug and alcohol addiction is no laughing matter. I should, it almost killed me, many, many times. BUT today, I’m full on into my recovery and spend most of my time with other recovering drug addicts. Man, I tell you, we laugh and laugh and laugh. We don’t need booze, or coke, or weed, or heroin to do that anymore. These are the people I went to hell and back with. These are the people who know what im all about. These are the people I love. And these are the people I laugh with. If you’re an addict, or suffer from drug or alcohol addiction… PLEASE! Give sobriety a shot, go to a rehab, get sober. Its so worth it. For no other reason that the laughter, give it a try.
