The disease...

Alcoholism and drug addiction are each a ‘disease’.

I know, because I have the ‘disease’.

Question: what is it about our ‘disease’ that prevents us from picking up the phone to tell someone else we’re getting ready to drink / use?

Why can’t we all simply call someone and say, “I going to drink / use.”..?

BEFORE we drink / use…?

Granted, I KNOW we have a disease that makes us want to drink / use… but does this same disease prevent us from telling someone BEFORE we do it?

I wonder if NOT calling someone is more of a CHOICE rather than a disease?

I don’t know the answer.
