Episode Synopsis

Both parents alcoholic so I grew up in a dysfunctional environment. My father killed himself rather than stop drinking.  I treated my body like garbage can for drugs, alcohol. and food. Sober at 31. Even though I was around the 12 step community I was outside as I was still eating compulsively. I was in and out of OA for years. Couldn't do it my way. I didn't need meetings I 'Lived' the program. Not. I completely forgot what meetings did 'for' me  After 2 seizures, multiple brain surgeries and a commitment I ended up surrendering to the OA Program. Today I am working to be more God centered than self centered. I am of service and have a quality of life I can rely on.
