This is my 21st, and final, Sobriety Story Video. I first knew I had a drinking problem 10 years ago. 3 years ago I started taking quitting Alcohol serious, and 6 months ago I started documenting the process. In this video I wrap up all my lessons and package it into one summary of all the tools that have helped me stay sober for the better part of 3 years now.
