I think you may want to get honest about whether you want to quit drinking.

It's no fun having one foot in recovery and one in the old drinking lifestyle.

I certainly missed my old drinking pals and the night life when I got sober, but I became willing to sacrifice whatever it took to get and stay sober.

The payback has dwarfed whatever I had to give up to get sober.

The choice is yours, but you need to make a decision.

For me, the answer to my alcoholism dilemma has been God and AA.

I haven't had a drink since the first time I walked into an AA meeting.

As an aside, our sobriety is gauged on the last time we drank, not the first time we tried to get sober.

I suspect you know that, though.

I hope you get and stay sober and stick around.
