I couldn't get a copy of this book at the library and funds have been tight, so I asked them if they would buy a copy. They said yes! They are buying copies of the first and second editions, and I should be able to borrow a copy soon! Thanks for providing the excerpts, Green Tea. I've been looking forward to reading the book for quite some time. |

Finally, someone gets it!! I was a great enabler to my alcoholic until I read both Under the Influence and Beyond the Influence. Then I realized that I was one too (just in the mid stage instead of needing a transplant) and needed help. Thank you , Green Tea, for posting this. I had given up trying to tell people about the books.

Awesome stuff GreenTea. I'm liking this idea where people are saying I'm enjoying the withdrawls. I'm starting to have that attitude. It's almost like working towards to the big pay off.....once this physical crap is over with I won't have to worry about ever having anything close to it again. I won't have to worry about what I said to that girl when I was blacked out, fearing hangovers, spending money, gaining unneccesary weight (20 beers=tons of calories), and most of all, not PISSING myself in bed. Any heavy beer drinkers ever urinate on themself while they were blacked out sleeping? I did it a bunch of times and it was one of the most embarrasing things. I actually did it when I had a girl with me, you wanna talk about embarrasing? That alone should have made me quit drinking.
