It's interesting because for me it was reading about the moral (or immoral) aspect of my drinking that really resonated with me as I sat there shaking my head yes yes that's me! I like that straight talk and it was exactly what I needed to hear then and now.
Alcohol in and of itself is not immoral or evil, but when I consume alcohol I act in utterly immoral and reprehensible ways. I go against my own moral code when I'm drinking and that's what leads to the guilt and shame we experience and talk about so much on this forum.
For me, drinking again would be akin to robbing a bank or stealing my neighbors jewelry or mugging an old lady. It's wrong and I'm not going to do it.
