Yeah I see what you are saying. It’s a definition thing, I suppose. God bless ya sir, hope you stay clean and sober all day tomorrow! :)
It’s strange. I know some people can’t even be in the same room as a beer after they quit. I was over a case (24) a day EVERY DAY for YEARS. Woke up to a beer, drank whenever I could get away with it, and went to bed with one on the night stand for the next morning. No BS. If that ain’t hardcore Alcoholism, I dunno what qualifies.
But since I quit, I have no desire to drink. I think when I did, I disgusted myself to the point that I’ll never ‘want’ another. And that’s something I truly feel blessed for. I know so many have such a hard time. And I’ll never take that for granted.
Now If I could just get that dang reloading thing figured out ;)
Having been here a long time, I remember alot. You are someone I cherish. When I heard this tonight, I cried. And then I remembered those that did not give in, those that rose above the addiction..
My brother, Barry, recently stopped drinking after 30 years of the bottle. I am overcome with joy that he has chosen life.
