Tell you one thing. It's definitely career limiting.

If anyone here wants to know what made me stop drinking after 17 years of daily drunkenness, just pm me and I will explain what started and what stopped me from drinking alcohol.

WHY you stopped isn't important. The fact you did is. Sordid details are for gossipers who have less interest in your well being and more interest in dirty laundry. Strong people have failed at what you're successful in doing. All that should matter to everyone here is that you continue on the good road you're on.

Much stronger people have failed at what you're successful at.
Well, what about those that have an equal interest in his well being and the gossip? Why must someone be either gay or straight? Can't they drive on both sides of the road like THE CLK MAN?

Watching people in that hole, it seems to me that when a person wants to quit FOR THEMSELVES, more often than not, they are successful. When they are doing it for someone else or something else, soon as that something or someone is absent, back to the addiction.

x2....no, xMILLION. Glad you are doing well CLK Man, and all the best. Aklim's assessment is completely spot on in my experience.

Sometimes it take a life changing event to shake some sense into a man.
