"a recovering alcoholic whose pain is felt by everyone (I get you, man, for real, and I admire your candor)"
...greetings and salutations! :D
The sobriety runs well in these parts. Been sober for some week 1/2, two weeks(?), and I feel good about it. Rehab likely awaits where I am moving to, but they may send me back to my newly-rented abode once they see my month+ of sobriety at that point (which will of course continue thereafter).
I like your writing method ~jack, and hope to see you around here more often.
