Most importantly, Anything we suggest is because, we don't like to see someone suffering from this.
So true. The sad thing is I remember sitting and listening to others trying to tell me the harsh reality, but I wasn't really listening. I was thinking how I could out of there and get my next drink. I had to learn the hard way, but the good news it, it finally clicked and I got it. I got that this was up to me. I wasn't going to wake up one day and be cured. I had to work at my recovery and I knew it wasn't going to be easy and I knew I wasn't going to like it, but I was willing to do it. I wanted sobriety enough that I was willing to go to any length. Today, sobriety is a way of life and drinking isn't. I can't even imagine going back to drinking again. The way I used to drink, the change of thinking and living is a miracle.
