You have to remember that. Not your AV. It's probably already forgot. You don't drink. You remember that. And you don't change your mind.
I talked to a therapist a couple days ago, and this is pretty much the gist of what he said. There's the "addictive" you, and simply
*you* - Who makes the decision (
you - make the right one and you're on the right track)
I'm about 10 days sober but the I feel the AV is about to break me - it's been
10 years - it's done nothing for me
