Dee, point well taken.
I completely agree with what you say that not everything is going to apply to everyone. I am not trying to be a trouble maker...just point out that this would be a great tool for someone who wants to deny they have a problem. The old, "I'm not THAT bad" line of thought that talks some of out of trying to abstain.
I appreciate the compliment of being self-aware, but I had an education in alcoholism from my first husband. We got divorced due to his drinking and I was starting to see things in myself that were reminiscent of him. It is a humbling experience. I didn't understand addiction at all back then, and I am now ashamed of the way I judged him and tried to control him. No wonder he kept drinking...if my current husband acted the way I did back then, I would probably crave alcohol even more than I already do.
