My AV got the upper hand, but was quickly put back in its place for the balance of the evening.
see the language you use there GC? you 'controlled' your AV?
I'd contend that you didn't...

I appreciate you grabbed back the wheel before you hit the rocks - but it was still 'pilot error'.

I've had many nights like the one you described where I didn;t stop and i lost the plot.

Once I drink, any 'control' I might have is more luck than anything else.

Maybe you're not picking up what I'm laying down and that's fine...it's your life, your recovery, your journey - just don't underestimate this thing, ok ?
