Hi Briar

In my experience there are 2 types of alcoholic folk.

Some people drink far too much for their own good, one day something catastrophic happens as a result of that and they quit. Life gets back on track and they never or seldom look back.

Some people drink far too much for their own good and one day something catastrophic happens and they quit, But life doesn't improve much, if at all and they end up where you are now.... Thinking of drinking again. Or actually doing it.

Thats alcoholism at its worst.

A "sober living problem " is probably a more apt description than an alcohol problem.

Think about it... If all you have is an alcohol problem, shouldn't the problem go away once you stop?

Dee has taken a lot of actions to overcome his drinking problem.

So have I.

Maybe you should too.

Alcoholism kills alcoholics.

If you had a life threatening illness, you'd take serious action... Right?
