Charlotte, I'm glad you made it through that.
"Drinking: A Love Story" is one of my very favourite books.
I read it when I was still drinking, but it was the first time I thought - wow, if she can do it, maybe I really could do it.
And, I found the way she romanticized her drinking and the grief and loss she felt when she stopped drinking, very helpful. It was the first time that I could see it as a process.
