I’m not defending this guy in the least, but as a recovering alcoholic, this was hard to watch. You never know when you’re going to hit your rock bottom, but if this wasn’t it for him, I don’t know what it would be. Getting pulled over with your kids is awful.
I’ve been sober for years, but you always have to keep your guard up for triggers, and have an emotional support group that is willing to support you. I know his occupation, as well as that of the cops that pulled him over, is controversial, but I just hope he is able to pull through this. His kids deserve better.
Hot recovering alcoholic take but dude endangered his kids and then showed them how to be an ass, not for the first time I’m sure. This is the “rules don’t apply to me” mindset that comes with being in a paramilitary. I sure do hope this was his rock bottom because his next one might involve those kids dead.
Thanks for shitting on an admitted alcoholic, for feeling empathy with another alcoholic. I’m glad his kids didn’t get physically harmed, but I am very aware that something like this emotionally harmed them.
Thanks for being part of the problem and not the solution.
Everyone can down vote me into oblivion, but addiction in all its forms should not have a stigma attached. I lived most of my life not realizing that I had a problem. I’m very thankful that I did eventually realize I did.
But again, feel free to cast judgement from your ivory tower. Talk shit on addicts, make yourself feel better.
