So yeah, I don’t know how to start this, so I’ll jump in… many people know or have noticed that I’ve had a problem with alcohol and substance abuse for quite a long time. It is easy to lie to yourself… well, I drive a nice car, or I make good money, it's not a problem… and I did that for a long time while I failed miserably in the essential aspects of life, friendships, relationships and so on. So I finally decided to do something about it. I’m going to a treatment program in Chicago next week. I’ll be gone for 30 days, and I don’t know after that. I haven’t told many people yet, and I’m sorry to do it like this. It’s not been easy, but this is my time. My work is very supportive; I qualify for FMLA so I’ll still have my career. My mom is going to watch my dogs. My insurance will pay for most of it, but I am on the hook for a good chunk. I could go somewhere in Colorado, but it's too easy for me to fail here. I know I'll have a better chance of success if I leave for this. So for my birthday this year (June 25) I am asking for donations to the Help Me Unfuck Myself Fund by Dave. I make good money, but I don’t have any. It's easy to ‘blow’ it all with habits like mine. 

Dont worry bout me. I'm excited about this.

 

Love y’all.
