Yea. I completely agree with you. I make that pretty clear in the article.
I was making lots of terrible decisions for many years during active addiction. I have processed most of it through AA, treatment centers and other recovering addicts.
This is more of a "war story" than a revival of my glory days. Just because something was reckless and dangerous for myself and others, doesn't mean it didn't happen, and I stand by my decision to share this story on Medium.
Thanks for being forthcoming about how you feel about this article. Even though I'm glad I published it, your comments will make me check myself a bit when publishing about my past in the future. Because it gets much, much worse.
