I was a chronic relapser who finally 'got it'. I'd get a few days sober, then drink. Get a few weeks sober, then drink. Get a few months sober, then drink. Until the last relapse 14 months ago.... I woke up so sick after drinking for two days I thought I was going to die. Wished I would die just to be out of my miserable existance.

But I didn't die, and I swore I'd never drink again, and I haven't. Hell, I don't even want to drink anymore. So if I can finally 'get it', anyone can, and that includes you!

I wasn't doing it by myself, I go to my addiction counselor once a week and she's a huge help.
