There's not much to miss...

I drank last night. I woke up this morning with no recollection of how I got home. I had vomited on the floor and woke up semi dressed, lying on the carpet. The car was parked at an angle and I have no memory of driving home.

I could have killed or injured someone. I could have killed or injured myself. I could have ended up in jail and lost my licence. I could have choked to death on my vomit.
Noneever, you never have to do this again. I am sorry to throw your words back at you, but this could be a crucial juncture for you and I don't want you to miss it's importance.

It may sound alarmist, the way I've posed it here. But to lose things you can never get back, like your life, health or your freedom- is an alarming thought. Drinking can most certainly lead one there.

Stay the course and find freedom in sobriety. I am convinced you can do this because you reach out here. You can do it noneever.
