Yes, I've know people with 25+ years who went out and some died, some came back. When I feel detached from AA I increase meetings and work the steps with my sponsor. I can only commit to not drinking today, how can I know what I'll do in six or nine months?

Try saying this: "my name is _______ and I have one day."
