Accepting you have alcohol dependency
Hi all I hope every one stays strong for the weekend ahead it is a lovely sunny afternoon here on Friday and I wanted to share something I just read - it is so me! I hope it inspires you or at least maybe stops us from relapsing.
"The stubbornness of addiction is shocking - how did I not recognise in the first instance that I would never be able to stop after just one or two glasses is something I find remarkable today when I consider the old drinking version of me. I was consistently without an off switch and therefore it should have been apparent that each and every time I took a sip from the initial drink, I would no longer be able to exercise any control whatsoever."
Keep away from that one drink and be strong!! Day 3 and I want to drink but I promised myself I would not. I have done this before and I can do it again, but this time I understand that I really can't have even one drink or I will not only be back to where I started but actually worse.
