I guess the question is if the wine tasting event has even the remotest possibility of flipping a switch?
We all have different triggers, switches, forks in the road, drinking habits etc.. What unites us here is that we all have a problem. It may come in different degrees, forms, duration whatever. But alcoholism is what it is.
I don't mean to sound mean. But you seem to be in some kind of denial, or confusion, about whether you THINK you have a problem with drink or not.
You're not being mean. I am in denial and I sit on this stupid fence for days at a time. It's awful. If I can just admit it and move on, I'm peaceful. But I am trying to get my honest thoughts out there so maybe you guys can help me poke holes in it. Cause these thoughts keep coming back and messing with everything.
