it's got me
It's got me again. Out of the blue.
Needing red wine to numb.
Awareness that it can get a lot worse.
No 'battle' previously. Just gave up.
Sense that this time it may win. Too strong hold just now.

Well, don't give up. Alcohol knocked me on my butt for many years, but I always hoped for a better day.
It took a long time, but it came. Some of us recover faster than others, but it is possible to beat alcohol. People here are doing it, as am I.
Never give up. Look at it as a set back not a way of life that is unchangeable.
You can do it.

Those mental impulses are so tough in the beginning. I found the only thing that ever helped was to say the heck with it. Just throw that thought away, forget about it. No use in talking to it, it will only get the better of you if you let it.
Turn it off right now, go do something else. Go for a walk or go to the mall. somewhere alcohol isn't. You'll get there if you try.
