I think the point here is that interacting with an alcoholic turns us into people we are NOT with normal people.
And also, the alcoholic will constantly deflect BLAME onto us, and make us feel guilty. I can say that NO ONE in my life thinks I am "crazy" like my alcoholic ex bf thinks I am. He's projecting all of our relationship problems onto ME, because that's what alcoholics do. It's probably one of the few things they are good at...projection and deflection of blame!
