That was a very important realization for me. I came to the point that I understood that just because I might “feel bad” does not make it OK to drink. For me it was important to embrace and accept that part of me that wanted a drink and yet, at the same time, recognize that there was something bigger and more important than me. Perhaps this ‘thing’ was only as large as welfare of everyone I might come in contact with while intoxicated, but this potential for a vast amount of harm to others was the tipping point for me.
