PP - there are so many things but isn't the most illogical of all, regardless of whether we hid bottles in the medicine cabinet from our family, were too hungover to go to work/class/life, or killed someone drunk driving - isn't the worst of it all that we kept drinking?
For me it's easy, unromantic and makes me not want to read a single "war story" response to this thread - I kept drinking.
No one is coming to save me.
