Thank you so much for the wise words Irnldy. I agree with everything - and in particular #3. I can't say when I stepped over the line from social drinking to drinking alcoholically. I was so good at justifying my habit. I was a good bit older than you when I got sober, and in the end I was drinking all day - completely isolated from everyone. It seems incredible now. I'm glad we've learned it 'really doesn't agree with us'.
