That's been important to me, remembering that it's a disease no different than diabetes, for example. I mean, if you were diabetic, and your friends suggested munching on candy, you could easily say, "I can't, I'm diabetic." Unfortunately, there is still alot of stigma attached to diseases like alcoholism, depression, schizophrenia, etc. and many times we feel we need to hide it so we won't be judged. Hopefully, our kids and their kids won't face the same hurdles when they find themselves with this problem.
