Michael's Journey: Finding Joy and Sobriety in the LGBTQ+ Community

I think that maybe being gay made it a bit more difficult to recover, because I wasn't able to build those connections with other lgbt people as I would have liked, because I wanted alcohol to have nothing to do with my life, and almost every other gay person I knew wanted to be going to the bar at The Weekend.
