The heart is a pump that pumps blood and has no opinion on whether you will overdrink or not. The brain, however, knows your drinking was out of control, that you needed alcohol in the morning to keep the shakes at bay, and it labeled you as an alcoholic. And then, even after 15 sober days, it commanded you to slam that glass of vodka and is sweetalking you into moderation with promises of never overdrinking.

You said in your post you are an alcoholic.

Alcoholics overdrink if they have even one.
