<div class=text-justify> I was checking myself out in the mirror today when I got out of the shower, that’s not the weird part. Weird is when you won’t look at the mirror at all or, when you look, you don’t recognize the person looking back at you. An occasional heart to heart with yourself isn’t a bad thing.</div>  “How Long has it been now?” I pointed at me, “me?” “Yeah, you, of course, you. How long have you been at it this time, five years? Six years?” I had to think about it for a minute, “yeah, I guess it’s been about five years exactly.” I haven’t had a drink since August 2nd, 2014. You know it’s bad when you have the date etched in your brain like knowing which hand you use to hold a toothbrush—“August 2, 2014.” I know people who tattoo their sobriety date on their flesh—eh, whatever it takes! The truth is, that’s just the last day I drank, there’s a whole bunch of days that led up to that last time or at least that’s what they tell me. It’s a sickness. And I sucked at it. I suck at being sick! It took me a couple of decades to figure that one out. It wasn’t until I was ordered by a judge to attend a six month *study* program that I was made aware how surreal my sickness was. I’d convinced myself that since I didn’t drink Monday through Friday and, I only drank on the weekends, I didn’t have a problem—I needed to learn *that* was a problem. I learned waking up pissed off there’s still a drop of whiskey in the bottle because I didn’t polish it off before I passed out the previous night is a problem. Fact—I needed to be taught that. I learned waking up in unfamiliar places just to be told how I got there and then laughing about it because I think it’s hysterical is a problem. I learned when your idea of regulating your drinking means buying two small bottles instead of one big one is a problem. That was a good program, your honor, “thank you!”  “How long’s it been this time?” I continued, “this is the longest you’ve ever gone, isn’t it?” “It is,” I said, “I haven’t thought too much about it, I don’t know how long it’s been exactly but it’s been awhile.” I guess it’s been about six or seven years since I popped any pills. That was the first problem I got control of, shortly after that was whiskey. Those of you who have been following me for a minute know I grew up on dirt bikes and, with that life comes injuries, about two decades worth. With injuries comes surgeries and rehabilitation and all of the drugs you can eat... *“legally!”* Percocet, Norco, Hydrocodone, Lortab, etc. Pain killers in all shapes and colors. After years of abuse and persistent doctor shopping in order to keep the medicine cabinet stocked with the appropriate narcotics required to wake up, stay awake, survive the day, fall asleep when the day’s over, stay asleep, just to wake back up again and repeat the steps, I decided I’d had enough—that was about seven years ago. I remember when I told my doctor I was done, “nah man, I’m good, thank you! You’ve been reliable and real good to me but I’m not going to eat pills anymore.” He told me I can’t quit. “You can’t just quit,” he said, “we’ll have to ween you off” he told me and wanted to prescribe an entirely new collection of transparent orange, plastic bottles with white, child-proof, twisty caps and blue warning labels. I respectfully declined and assured him I’d be ok, “I’ll be alright, Doctor.” He insisted I wouldn’t be alright and that attempting to quit cold turkey and detoxing on my own would be a mistake, “the withdrawals can be dangerous!” I was made aware of all of the possible outcomes should I attempt to do this on my own including heart attack and death. Again, I assured Dr. Faruk, MD, I’d be ok, “I’ll be fine, Doc.” We shook hands, he told me good luck and don’t hesitate to call his office should I require assistance. I said whatever I said and I haven’t been prescribed anything since and, look at me now, typing this article like someone who’s not even dead yet.  “Check you out! Remember back when you wouldn’t do that?” “How could I forget?” I asked me. “The difference between checking me out and not me out is avoiding my reflection entirely.” “How long’s it been now?” The mirror asked, “seven years, eight years?” “Yeah, about eight years this time.” I’ve been consistent at training and exercise for about eight years now, that was my first step toward recovery. It wasn’t long after that I stopped eating pills and within a few months of saying bye to those things is when I decided to leave the whiskey where it belongs—on the shelf. Fact—I was tired of holding my breath to tie my boots! I told myself I was going to stop eating poison and do something about it for a couple of years before I finally made good on my wOrd. I’d been into exercising regularly, eating right, and staying in shape in the past, there were multiple years during my 20’s and 30’s where I’d go to the gym regularly before work but, what would happen is, I’d remain faithful to exercise and training and then injure myself again on a bike. After that is surgery and recovery time, unable to work, getting back on my feet becomes important, not the gym. It’s tough to get back into it once you’ve fallen out for some years—it takes about six weeks to get back into it. Today I’m healthy. I’m 45 pounds lighter than I was back when I was sick. I’m 100% free from toxins provided by pharmaceutical giants and my neighborhood liquor giant. I don’t avoid mirrors anymore, I check it out sometimes, and it feels good to confidently say and know from deep inside my soul, “I’m in the best shape of my life.” God, thanks, G! Without you I wouldn’t even have anyone to thank for the thumbs I just used to type this article.   https://steemitimages.com/0x0/http://i.imgur.com/5V84VGh.gif https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/613135521530642487/613135752708096216/dandays.gif <a href=https://steemit.com/money/@dandays/money-shot-a-tribute-to-eddie-money-you-won-t-find-this-story-anywhere-else>**Saturday**</a>

I won't comment anything on your great achievement of living a healthy life because I'm grateful that I read your story now😀 because if you wrote about your activities 7 years ago.. i won't read 😉 Btw.. did you listen to tts? It makes this wonderful story sound like a speech😆 and you can hear something like wink face with one eye shut or smile with tongue out in my tts articles😂 Are you happy now @dandays? Being healthy and happy are something expensive now.

Oh man, you and Pura both. She happened to meet me at a very good time in my life, I wasn’t the same back then. I wasn’t a bad person, I was still me, I just wasn’t the me I am today. I did listen to that—too funny. Happy?? Shoooot. I’m the luckiest guy I know @cicisaja, ask me, I’ll tell you. Thanks a lot for listening to me talk to myself, Cici.

I won't ask 😂😂 im jealous of your healthy and happy life with pura though I'm more than happy just to read both of your life story on steemit. It will be different if you write a post about those pills that I never heard and I couldn't imagine how can you handle the pain 7-8 years ago. Btw.. I like the way you talk to yourself ..and the cover image too!

Hello @dandays, how are u doing? I see you have a sexy and strong body, sir. It must be because you are diligent in doing exercise . Your back is also filled with lots of tattoos. I think maybe you labored for years to tattoo your body. I really appreciate you who managed to leave your habit of drinking liquor. Booze will really destroy someone. And you have done the right thing, friend. Hopefully you can enjoy your life now with happiness. especially your wife is very kind and beautiful. Have a nice day, sir.

Well long time no hear, how are you @elianaelisma? Thanks for translating and reading this article. I hope it didn’t take too long. I miss whiskey, I miss it all the time, it was great for bad weather, bad news, bad mail, can’t sleep, can’t stay awake, it really did a lot for me. But everything that I wanted to go away kept coming back. Labored for years pretty much covers it. A whole lot of ouch. Really nice to hear from you again. Have a nice week.

Good morning my friend. What an unbelievable journey you have had. Your article was so honest and truly courageous. You have my greatest respect ! Addictions can be relentless, even when you're off the sauce so to speak, it's an everyday battle. Sad to say, but I have had first hand experience with these terrible things. My youngest sister, who is 12 years younger than I was an alcoholic probably starting in her late teens. I was out of the house, married with 2 kids at the time. When the first accident occurred, she was drunk at a party in my parents home, they were away at the time. I get a call way late at night, that she had fallen and was on her way to the hospital. Off I go to the hospital, where I worked by the way, thank God, she was only banged up, no head injury. That was the first time I slammed my foot down and talked her into rehab. She did a 30 day in house lock down and dried out. When she got out, she came to live with Bob and I so I could stay involved and take her to out patient therapy, AA meeting etc. After several months with us she was together again and determined to stay sober. She moved out and into her own apartment with a close girlfriend. She was doing great, teaching in a pre-school, loving her new life. In less than, 2 months, while working the night shift in the hospital, one of my ER doctor friends comes to me in the radiology department to tell me my sister was being brought in, very bad shape. She was brought over to me so I could x-ray her cervical spine, her neck. When I saw the first x-ray, I nearly passed out. She had severed her spinal chord by 75%. her blood alcohol level was off the charts. By all measures she should have been dead. Not to be, she survived and is still living by the grace of God, some 26 years later. But my little sis, HAS NEVER WALKED AGAIN. Sorry if I have upset you in anyway with my story, my sister paid the price, big time, for thinking she was having a Good Time. So young man, I admire your strength. I am blow away by you sharing your story, such courage. Your are beautiful, smart and important. Never give up, stay the course, you are doing the work...God Bless You!!!

Upset me? Are you kidding?! If I could draw out responses like this from you each time I would. I could actually feel the emotion in tour text. At least that’s what I think just happened. God bless your sister—crazy story! Man, I got a buddy named Nick, same thing. He lost his legs at age 34—that’s it! Smashed and driving his truck, ended up rolling a bunch of times and lost his legs. Thank you so much for appreciating this article, that means a lot. It isn’t every day someone’s just like “here’s a page, go ahead and read it!” So, when it happens, it’s nice to know someone appreciate it—thank you! <—<sub>bigger</sub> than that. Now I need to sign back into steempeak and hook you up with some pink lettering.  Posted using [Partiko iOS](https://partiko.app/referral/dandays)

Hey @dandays, I just wanted to thank you again for sharing this. I have been searching for the missing piece of my puzzle and something about reading this was really the tipping point for me. I have been keeping my mouth shut as far as what i am doing and dont like talking until the keys are in my hand. My whole attitude/perspective has changed since ive read this and i have accomplished more in these last 6 days than i thought was possible. I look forward to sharing my story one day but for now im putting my head down and getting back to the grind. Something about your story just really hit me in the right spot and was exactly what i needed. Thanks brother.

Hold please—this is a no brainer....  That article is worth its weight in ~~gold~~ Steem then, Jon. Eh, if this article was only destined to be beneficial for one person, regardless if it was for you, someone I’ve never typed to or someone who ain’t even on Steemit, it was worth its weight in ~~gold~~ Steem. Man, whatever you’re going through, wether or not I’ve worn the same shoes, I can comprehend it fully and I have compassion for you. Dude, please, feel free to lean on me. What you read here, believe it or not, is a summarized version. Bro, I still see pills on the ground sometimes—true’fa king story! I NEVER saw loose pills on the ground when I was sick, here I am in a constant state of recovery and I’ve literally seen loose narcotics on the ground in markets.. bus station.. F’ing crazy! Add to that central and South America where you can walk outta any pharmacy with as much as you can carry. Now let’s talk about the whiskey. Everything i just said doesn’t pertain to whiskey because it’s legal and it’s accepted and it’s readily accessible on each and every street corner. “The only reason I’m sober is because I am.” You’re doing great, @idig! Sincerely, Arts.

I found a new mental exercise that may help w those ills laying on the ground. Everytime you see one, make yourself do 10 mental pushups, visualization. From my perspective it rewires those neural pathways.

Wonderful to hear that you overcame all of that [@dandays](https://steemit.com/@dandays), enjoyed reading your one on one conversation! God gives us so many talents but sadly we waste it until we get a wake up call; some are not that lucky to survive, some never reach their full potential...but then do we ever reach that? I think as long as we try it's ok. But I'm so glad for you and your loved ones that you took that leap of faith and held onto the guiding hand of God. Must share a photo a photographer friend took one day when he was really down and this immediately made him realise he was safely in God's hands; it was a dry leaf, a twig and a seedpod, he called it 'To God the glory'  Photo by Hendrik Louw

Thank you for sharing the photo. And thanks for reading this one, I’m glad you liked it. I love knowing I was able to keep your attention for it. You know, everything happened right around the same time. Mom, gone. Drugs, gone. Etc and it was right around that same time I realized I was on the wrong side of the fence—it all happened right around the same time, libelled, true story. Pura happened to meet me at a real good time. 😉 God’s the coolest dude in this conversation. Talk to you soon @lizelle. Thanks for listening to me talk to me.

It really is stunning, I'm amazed each time I look at it! Hendrik is married to a dear friend's daughter and is a keen photographer, but mostly of tiny bugs, frogs etc. He apparently will sit or lie in the grass for ages waiting for the right shot;) I'm so glad you spotted this, it's very special! Hope you're starting to warm up over there @edprivat.

Wow! this post gives me hope. I am trying to lessen my prescription because the side effects scares me. I know what it feels like to live on a dirt bike and bikes in general then get injuries :D Now, I truly avoid those and always wishing another day to live without a new prescription! Also I've been sober for about a year, quitting my favorite vodka. I know it's good for bad days, good days, whatever celebration there is but that's counterproductive to my neuron prescription.

Sleeping, waking up, traffic, bad weather, I live whiskey so much I can’t think of a bad time. *That’s* a problem. Congratulations on your sobriety @macchiata, that’s more than a lot of people can say. Pills aren’t bad. As soon as we realize they don’t make pain go away, they just make pain more fun to deal with, they’re easy to let go of. Dirt bikes.. yeah. I could be driving down the road and see one in the back of someone else’s truck and I won’t even look at it—I’ll strain my neck or something just looking. Thanks a lot for checking this one out @machiata, be proud of yourself.

Addiction is no joke. I've known way to many people and families ripped apart because of it, so it brings me so much joy to see a good dude like you be able to rise above and share your story. I am sure your candidness will help more people than you know. 💚

Has anyone told you how nice you are lately? What about me? Have Eye told you how nice you are lately? Imagine a semi truck, a big huge diesel truck all by itself, all murdered out with no trailer. It’s even lowered to the ground, even the pipes are black, and all boxey looking, no weird windshield things or anything like that, just a real slick looking diesel truck. It even has single tires in the rear, they’re just super wide, like they normally are with dual tires. Can you see it? Alright, now imagine it has suicide doors. Nice like that @plantstoplanks.

Good for you my man. Recovering had to be one of the hardest things you have ever done in your young life. So many people in the same boat try and fail. Addiction to anything is never a good thing, especially when both of the vices you dealt with are legal, and so easy to get. You have made a remarkable recovery, and to feel better at your present age then when you were in your twenties and thirties, tells the whole story of the devastating ramifications of drug and alcohol addiction. I am a big fan of Don Imus, and have been for years. He talks about his addiction to drugs and alcohol openly, and still refers to himself as recovering alcoholic, even after years of staying clean. His life was turned around after meeting his wife Deirdra who he married in 1994. I don't know if @puravidaville had anything to do with your recovery, but having a wonderful companion in your corner is a great way to go through life. I wish you well, and stay true to the relatively new you.

She has a lot to do with a lot of things. I know what he means by recovering. When I say it, it looks like this: “The only reason I’m not drinking is because I’m not.” Does that make sense? It doesn’t typically make sense when I tell people and I have to explain myself. It’s everywhere, like you said, it’s on every corner. There isn’t a day that goes by I don’t want a drink, oh man, especially when I get bad news! Or if it’s raining.. or if I can’t sleep, that’s always a good one, or when the mailman delivers bills I wasn’t expecting.. on a Friday, Fridays are good days. Yeah, “the only reason I’m not drinking is because I’m not.” No pubs for me man. No bars, no thanks. People are always like “this pub here” and “that wine there” and I just smile and nod. Dude, thanks a lot for noticing [@thebigsweed](https://steemit.com/@thebigsweed). I appreciate you listening to me talk to myself. I see you’re at a 70 today, that’s cool. Your rep is like a bull market! Lol!! That was funny.

“the only reason I’m not drinking is because I’m not.” I really like that one & yeah i get it. It reminds me of some mental powers David Goggins has used, to get through some extreme situations.

"The only reason I'm not drinking is because I'm not." I totally get that, and no further explanation should ever be required. That rep score of 70 is waked out. I was thrilled, when just a couple of days ago I reached 61 .A rep score of 70 is for the big boys. @dandays, I will listen to you talk to yourself any time my friend.
