Hi and congratulations with being able to see through the haze of alcohol.
Alcohol works in strange ways with different individuals. It can be a friend for years and accomplishes what we look for for years then suddenly can turn and become our worst enemy. Alcoholism is progressive meaning it never gets better than today if we continue its intake.
The fact is that alcohol is cunning, baffling, powerful and insidious.
For too many it’s a miserable way to live with ourselves and or others.
I approached AA many years ago and it has worked for me and millions to recover one day at a time in a row. It started when I kept hearing the words KEEP COMING IT WORKS
IF WE WORK IT.
BE WELL
