Hey Vic,
I too so much appreciate SR and all the compassionate thoughts and insight.
You might like to read my first thread on here back in the early days of January to understand a bit of my journey.
I guess what I'm trying to communicate is RR educated, untwisted the years I'd spent in a program and led me to the very simple, basic, irrefutable fact that I had been missing all along, my BP. I will never drink again and I will never change my mind.
Anyway, I'm a bit tired but if you are interested look back on the first thread and other few I started in the first week or so.
I know I can over think a speck of dust but when it comes to not drinking, I keep it straight to the point. No mucking around with that. And please know this is just my experience.
ETA: I don't wish away my years in AA. I believe in the beginning it helped put some time between me and alcohol. It's just that I know now, I don't drink ever and I will never change my mind.
