I was the same. Plus I just wanted to see how it felt. then the door was open and it crept in bit by bit. Whilst the physical craving is bad it is the mental obsession which is worse. Shall I drink tonight, what shall I drink, what time shall I start, how much shall I have, how will I feel tomorrow and on and on it goes.
Not to mention the amounts of money I have spent and other areas of my life I've neglected. It helps to write it down, put it in perspective.
