Straight Out The Rooms

A Sneak Peek at What's Coming

Step 1 is about smashing the delusion that we're normal.

"You sound like a middle age divorced woman, you should get a goldfish"

It's all fun and games until you wake up with a used condom in your ass

"If my brain knows that two plus two is four, why the fuck do I think I can drink again?"

It was interesting to hear stories about how I was, from my kids, when I became sober

I used to think my roommates were plotting against me, so I grabbed a golf club once and hid in my room for a few days. I thought this was normal.

If you have grumpy thoughts, you stay in a grumpy mood

Until I'm dead, I can take a lot more pain.

Never be surprised to see an alcoholic drunk no matter how long they were sober

Instead of hitting a guy with a chair hit them with a prayer

Do you want to know why you were an addict? Stop smoking and you'll figure out why.

If you haven't been pissed off by, or been pissed off from, someone in the rooms, you're not going to enough meetings.

The gun went off, but I got a squib

Looking at my recent relapses, I feel like I never really developed a relationship with my higher power. In the beginning i used the fellowship, but it never evolved past that. I got comfortable. I stopped going to meetings.

It doesn't matter what your accolades were, you are still in this room.

Karma is a motherfucker... you just got to pray for them

The long I stay sober, the gift of desperation has started slipping away and I feel my ego coming back.

"Imagine no religion..." Imagine no region? Join AA.

Expectations are resentments under construction

How do I avoid the next time? Learning weed isn't the problem, but I was the problem. Weed was just one of my solutions

"...This old broad, forgive me Lord, will beat your ass..."

"I've never seen anyone too dumb to do AA, but I've seen people that were too smart."

I was robbed one night and they took everything from me. They even took my shoes and threw them in a bush; how nice of them.

"I think COVID is still around, so I have to spray the bad thing back."

My creator gave me free will, which means he gave up his power to intervene in my life without my consent. I have a theory of not how it works, but why it works. I'm consciously giving back my self will to my creator.

I didn't like cocaine, but I liked the way it smelled.

Am I a narcissist for thinking everyone should treat me as I treat them?

"I don't smoke crack, so I don't have a problem"

"I've got more than seven deadly sins. I sin everyday"

"I'm grateful to be sober today."
