I understand pippi the black out state is so unpredictable and can be a danger to so many around. I call it baby brain. Because you have basically drank your brain back to that of an infants capacity. I have watched a few people get there while on the road the past couple of weeks and been there in the past. I am sorry to hear that happened and I didn't mean at all to sound defensive. No one is above anyone here and I guess anything can truly happen when someone loses control.

Not at all - it's nothing about being better than others. What terminal uniqueness means that we feel we are facing a situation in a way that no one else ever has. It's personal exceptionalism - that you are so very different (not better or worse, just different) from everyone else, and therefore the solutions that have worked for others won't and/or can't work for you because of your unique traits and circumstances.

It's a form of denial, and hence it kills, as we don't feel the need to be able to work a program of recovery or even bother investigating other ways of treating the alcoholism. You said you won't get lost in a world of denial, and that is how you feel and approach things. We also have to be careful about living where we are either in denial, delusion or both. I know I was the latter.

If you're committed to moderate drinking, then good luck. If you're committed to sobriety for good and all, good luck. Being in the middle can be dangerous.
