BTW I have learned through my own experience to think like this since I have learned about alcoholism and addiction. I am happy with the way that I view alcoholism at the moment as it's keeping me sober One day at a time. The day that changes I will have to reconsider my views. At the end of the day thats all I'm interested in really ie- keeping sober and actually feeling peacefull and happy/glad that I am sober. Being sober is totally different differnt to being "dry". I experienced "dry" spells (usually lasting a couple of weeks) but then I realised that my way of thinking and doing things was just keeping me in the same vicous cycle of bingeing every few weeks.So I looked to others who drank and thought simialr to me and took their advice/wisdom on what kept them sober. I choose AA and SR.

BTW I am very much an individual. Just that recovery has given me a new "pair of glasses" to view the world through. Still my eyes but viewed through a pair of glasses that will help me stay sober. Which is what I want more than anything as without my sobriety I will have nothing but with it, I have everything to live for.


All The Best.
