As you know Jen from some of our talks, I was one of those that had to take it to the MAX and died in the process.
Earlier in my recovery, I used to envy those that got here with "things and stuff" left. Why was I so hardheaded? lol.
Today, I understand, it can be so much harder for anyone who has any of the "yets" left. It is much easier to tell ones self that I haven't done "xxx" yet, so I am not an alcoholic.
But you hit the nail right on the head Jen, it's not what you have or haven't "yet" done, it is what alcohol did to you and for you:

I found that it was a matter of what happened to ME when I drank. I was not the same person. Not a happy person. I was not in control, nor could I control the amount of alcohol I took in or what I would do under the influence. I was dangerous and a menace to society.

Great Thread Jen.
Love and hugs,
