Whoa. This brought a tear to my eye. I've gotten to this point of yelling I GIVE UP plenty of times. But i don't leave it. I leave it for awhile...And i think I've got control back because i stay sober for a few months.
And then i pick it back up. And EVENTUALLY i drink over it. Again and Again.
Thanks for writing this GracieLou. It struck a chord with me.
