I'm not in AA so this is not sanctioned by anyone but me LOL
but I figure I'm
not powerless - but I
become powerless when I ingest alcohol.
I don't find the fight analogy useful, although I know many do. Fighting something implies to me the chance the other guy can win.
I just don't fight anymore.
I accepted I'm an alcoholic...I can't drink -ever - and I make sure I have a wide range of options at any time to make sure I never do.
No drink. No fight.
I win.
Good luck NP
