Be kind to yourself!

These are wonderful words from Anthony - stay away from toxicity and “cancellers”, pretty much spend less time on the internet/Twitter around miserable people

We all make mistakes, do your best and be kind to yourself and others as much as you can

Any addict of any kind who's healthy, happy and no longer shaming themselves for who they are is a big win so Well done to Hopkins, well done to anyone else.

Thank you. I can celebrate my daughter’s long life ahead because she went into detox today at just 31 years old!

"Be kind to yourself"... Hard to do when in despair, but this is the best bit of advice going in to 2023.

Congratulations Sir! I am soon to be 4 years sober in March and at 35 years old, I returned to education to do a degree in Law & Criminology....drinking is more dangerous to health than you realise and if I hadn't nearly bled out internally from organ failure and quit there and wouldn't be writing

Many many old people also get bullied "Sir" Anthony. In retirement homes for example. They don`t count? You always address young pleople. What`s wrong with you? Other tha that I admire you and you inspire despite me being 24 years sober and already 62 yo.
