As an addict I would use drugs and alcohol to hide away my feelings. I realized one day that I was still doing that with junkfood especially at Christmas when I was alone. I felt lonely and had regret I didn't want to face. My tradition became to lose myself in junkfood and movies.

Being good at the program of recovery and applying what I've learned I saw the behavior and took action to change it. And from that I found a new and fun Christmas tradition I share with my family.
