Hi Safira
The disease of alcoholism is "cunning, baffling and powerful". It will trick you any way it can to get you into drinking.
You admit you are an alcoholic, you study the Big book, you love AA yet this cunning alcoholic part of your mind tells you you are not powerless.
If you can't admit you are powerless, you can't do Step 1, you can't work the rest of the steps and you can't recover.
