Is it time to abandon the ‘tough love’ approach to addiction?

As of the other day I’ve been sober for 21 yrs. I’m still a weirdo, I’m still creative & when I fuck up these days I clean up the mess way sooner & way more thoroughly. And I never have a hangover! It’s a good deal. Thank you to everyone who’s helped me along the way.❤️
