Just this weekend I was with my family and we started talking about alcoholism because of my AH and some of them think that it's weak character not to just stop. I couldn't stand it anymore and said "Sure why would anyone want to stop drinking if you can when you can waste away to nothing, vomit, injure yourself all the time and die hating yourself!" I was so mad at them and the ones that didn't believe you could white knuckle it I think are hooked on AL themselves.
