You know you are an alcoholic when you find passages in the Big Book that sound like you wrote them yourself from your own experiences.

Chapter 11: A Vision For You (pg 151)

"--then would come oblivion and the awful awakening to face the hideous Four Horsemen--Terror, Bewilderment, Frustration, Despair."

Chapter 11: A Vision For You (pg 152)

"Some day he will be unable to imagine life either with alcohol or without it. Then he will know loneliness such as few do. He will be at the jumping-off place. He will wish for the end."

You know you're an alcoholic when you live with that knowledge for 30 plus years but still choose to drink despite the blackouts, injuries, health problems, humiliation and shame. Drinking wins, you lose.
