I used to feel that way...but I now realize that I suffer from a disease--called Alcoholism. I have to surrender daily, turn my will over to Something bigger than myself--because I couldn't stop drinking on my own. I would make promises to stop drinking altogether (and really mean it)...only to start drinking once again. This website has helped me alot along with another 12 step fellowship. You are not a weak person--just a sick person who (hopefully) is trying to get well. You didn't get to where you are right now in
one day
, so remember that it will probably take some time to get better--if you are like I was when I first started my recovery process. Keep reaching out. There are plenty of wonderful people here who can help.
