Alcoholic thinking = This time will be different! I have learned my lesson and will drink normally tonight.......glad I learned that lesson. HA!
There are those I hear in the rooms who will comment often something like - "that's because you're an alcoholic". Sort of a catch all of basic human flaws......you think that way because your alcoholic. I don' t subscribe to this. Non drinker or daily, we all have issues and being alcoholic doesn't ultimately explain away all bad thinking / behavior.
