That's an awesome statement.... Same deal for me. I'm personally just as powerless over it now as I was 55 months ago but I found some additional power - an external battery pack, so to speak.

And unfortunately for many of us who are hell-bent on solving the problem ourselves.......the answers come in doing a lot of things you may not believe will 'work' and doing a whole lotta stuff you probably won't want to do. I guess that's logical cuz most of us, when we're drinking, are pretty-much living our lives the way we see fit........and, for an alcoholic, that just doesn't work. --hope that make sense.
