"I CANNOT now, nor will I EVER, be able to drink like a normal person! I guess I still have not been able to wrap my head around that fact, entirely."
This is the first post I read on SR and it resonated so well with me. Thank you for reminding me of my own problem. I quit drinking about 10 weeks ago, but the same thoughts have been creeping into my head. I was just fantasizing about an upcoming vacation thinking that I can "drink like a normal person during my trip, if I carefully monitor myself."
You just reminded me about the last 4 or 5 times I fell off the wagon. Those dangerous thoughts have been my down fall each time and again thanks for the reminder and best wishes during your upcoming recovery.
