I have no idea why I drank. I just had to get more under my belt once I got the taste. It was never why, but how many. Whatever reasons came were probably irrational.
If there was a reason I became an alcoholic it is because I never liked being me and wanted to be someone else. I didn't sit right within myself and thought booze would fix that and give me happiness.
Since becoming sober I have found that the spiritual tools I use everyday help me to accept who I am and be kind to myself and find serenity. I'm discovering that deep within us is a true being, holy and pure. Just have to lose the false self that's been deluding us all our lives to come into true consciousness.
Strange I've actually found that " Getting up, taking a shower, taking the train to work, sitting at my desk, and going home" is actually a reward in itself when done mindfully.
