I Put Beepers on My Beer Because I Kept Losing It - AA Speaker - Tami F.

I Put Beepers on My Beer Because I Kept Losing It - AA Speaker - Tami F.

Tami went to treatment to quit drugs but told her husband she'd leave the car at 65 mph if he suggested she quit drinking — then a tin cross, Psalm 23, and Board 23 started connecting dots she couldn't explain. We just launched our new Episodes page — search hundreds of AA speaker meetings by topic, speaker, or step ☀️ Sober-Sunrise.com Tami chased a euphoric feeling from her first sip of Purple Passion at 12 and spent the next two decades building a life that looked fine from the outside — husband, four kids, ten years at Ford — while the drinking came first every single time. She put beepers on her beer because she kept losing it, sought out what she thought was cocaine at 36 with two babies at home, and developed drug-induced schizophrenia taking pictures of electricity in her attic. Her sister had a church praying for her. At Valley Hope she lied her way to a tin cross, then felt a pang of guilt that wouldn't leave — so she went back to chapel for real and heard Psalm 23 for the first time. She was in Room 23. Months later she threw a vial of dust into the river from Board 23. A year after that she heard Deuteronomy 9:21 — "I crushed it into a powder as fine as dust and threw it in the stream" — and pulled her van over sobbing. Today the pink cloud hasn't left and her little girl thinks the Lord's Prayer starts with "Our Father who draws in heaven." Tami F. from Olathe, KS speaking at NE Johnson County group in Overland Park, KS - July 9th 2010 Music: Deep by KaizanBlu
