The wolf, dog, voice...its all an inside job. The wolf has no power until you give it power. And you can render the wolf powerless if you will. Stopping the thought or wolf by disengaging from harmful future drinking thoughts. After all addiction resides in the mind. One can learn to control there mind or allow others to use mind control. It seems to work both ways. I like to TCB on my own when my mind is involved.
