My attention was drawn to the dash, interesting that the authors didn't just use the word "and".

Yes I was powerless over alcohol.
So I quit.
But my life was still unmanageable and actually got worse.!

So I had to conclude the unmanageability wasn't related, directly at least, to drinking or not drinking.

After I quit drinking, I merely removed alcohol from my alcohol-ism but that still left the ism, (I'm S'till M'e.)

So that left me with the impression that the dash means 'aside from'.
My life remains unmanageable whenever I try to manage it.
I don't know whats best in my life, God does.
