At 33, recovery found Tom obese, isolated, and dependent on welfare and disability payments. Deeply unhappy and ashamed of what he had become, he had no idea he was an addict.  Fifteen years later, healthy, employed, married, and living free from life threatening addiction, he was shown that normal living was not enough to keep from returning to insanity, that for him the spiritual life cannot be just a theory. Tom will speak to us today on how he is No Longer Running the Show.Reco12 is an organization with the mission of learning and sharing the similarities of addiction of all kinds and gaining and sharing tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.  We come together from all places, faiths and backgrounds to gain tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.Reco12 appreciates your help in keeping us working our 12th Step with these great resources and services for the addict and loved ones.  We gratefully accept contributions to help cover the costs of the Zoom platform, podcast platform, web hosting, and administrative costs.
