I guess going to detox for alcohol withdrawals makes me a "Poor Sport"

Unbelievable

Seems unlikely.

Explain? 

Perhaps you are referring to having timed out in a bunch of games in a daily tournament where vacation is not allowed.

If it's due to anything in that linked article, that would be how. The site can't tell why it happens, just that it does. 

How do you feel about your progress so far?

I’m really sorry you're feeling that way—getting help for alcohol withdrawals is a huge step, and it shows strength, not weakness. I’ve seen a close friend go through something similar, and their experience was eye-opening. At first, they were nervous about what people might think, but the support they found through detox made a world of difference in their recovery. It wasn’t easy, but they came out the other side feeling healthier and stronger.
