Any words of love and encouragement (or whatever you think will work) will be DEEPLY appreciated.
Hey there --
Don't beat yourself up. Don't fill your head with self hate or negativity. Try and learn from your "slip" and find ways to cope when you are thinking about drinking.
As for the "Disease" .... For me... I have come to terms with my past as an "Addiction" ... I am/was addicted. My brain couldn't regulate my intake. Just kept telling me more.. more..
So I have come to realization. I cannot and will not drink. Not one drop. Nat ganna dew it.
I'm OK with this... I will be OK and live a higher quality life.
Hope this makes sense.... !
