Because I was so good at the glamorizing, too, I wrote a list in my sobriety journal. This list (longer than I wish to admit) is filled with every negative memory I have related to drinking. Every embarrassing, dangerous, hurtful, sad, sick thing I did to myself and others when I was under the influence of alcohol. So, when the glamour thoughts enter my mind, it is now trained to go to the not so pretty List.
