This is true, believe it. At least it's been my experience. Sobriety takes practice (not for all but definitely for some). I think we toy with the idea and think how nice it would be if we could get sober. You really have to have had it with it all to come to the decision. People ask what my rock bottom was and I had far worse experiences than what had happened the night before I decided to quit for the final time.
I was seriously finally sick of myself and what I had become, once and for all.
