I did that, too. I knew my drinking was a problem for 24 years before I did something about it. By then it was a really big problem. In retrospect, it was pretty dumb to wait.

I thought the same thing for many years, but it turns out it wasn't exactly true. It wasn't me I was trying to convince, it was the alcohol addict living in my head. I never was able to convince him that drinking was a bad idea. I gave up trying. I know it's a bad idea, and that is enough.

Best of Luck on Your Journey!
