“So thank you for them to share. Bernie alcoholic. You know, my entire life I've always been selfish, self-centered, not caring about anybody, you know. And boy, this time I'm taking advantage of it.”
Feeling weighed down by life's baggage? Octavio knows that feeling all too well. In this episode of 'Big Book Awakening', he opens up about his initial struggles when he joined Alcoholics Anonymous.
