I have conquered a lot in my life. I was United States Marine Corps Infantry. First Gulf War. Honors graduate from a great school. Graduate school. Great career. But one thing is my ultimate nemesis—- alcohol.
thats because alcoholism is an equal oppertunity destroyer- it doesnt matter if you conquered nations single handedly, built multi billion dollar businesses, became a successful neurosurgeon, formed one of the greatest bands of all time........


I am a man pushing a rock up a hill, but it is SOOOOO heavy. And I am tired.

thats part of the problem. youre trying to do something on your own ya dont have to. theres people that will help and guide you how to chisel away the rock-to make it small enough you can carry it up the hill then throw it away.

on this
I had been doing so well. And then for no particular reason, I thought I would “enjoy” the “holidays”.
did ya do anything more than stop drinking?

meetings are great,but going to meetings and not drinking dont treat alcoholism.
