Every one has a different bottom, it is as Barb says:

Quote:
it's the point at which stopping drinking becomes more important that drinking.
Some people only reach that point when they are 6 foot under, others it is simply getting tired of drinking, some it is a DUI, others jail, some institutions, others the lose of family, others lose it all before they hit their bottom.

A bottom is when one decides to stop digging the hole they are digging.

I knew I was at my bottom when I saw dying an alcoholic death in my future, at that point I was willing to do what ever it took to stop drinking and stay stopped.
