I have surpassed
6 months of sobriety. I actually did this about a week and a half ago. I can’t
say that it was a major milestone for me as I have done this before. However,
it is a stepping stone for my journey. I continue to engage in my journey and
am at the point where I am ready to give up my professional certification. The
governing body that reviews and monitors my professional number decided a
couple of years ago to take administrative actions due to a legal infraction
unrelated to my profession. As it was I thought this was ridiculous, but
understand that the governing body is more concerned about entity liability and
money than anything else. The terms they gave me for my probationary period
were so unrealistic that I got the point and after a self cost benefit analysis
and some introspection I decided that it would be best if I surrender my
number. I have neither regret nor resentment. I had decided a few years ago
that I would not be pursuing things professionally that I was set up to. Some
of this has to do with oversaturation of the field coupled with a bizarre
governing body that at times is kooky. The rest of my reasoning is due to my
loss of interest in the field. The idea that the governing body is made up of a
group that wants to be “in control” of my life does not interest me but rather repels
me. There is a shoulder sigh of relief for sure for me and most likely from
them as well. I will focus on my rehabilitation and they will continue to focus
on their bureaucratic and listless processes.
