I drank for the effect, true.I loved the effect,especially when I started drinking.
Now I am sober and the obsession to drink has been removed.I have found that at certain times during my sobriety I did things and I believe I was searching for something to replace the effect,I did not want to drink,but wanted the effect,the sense of ease and comfort, booze gave me.Using people,places and things was what it was,instead of going to my Creator.That was unhappy territory I was in.
