Theres a saying. I could stop but i couldn’t stay stopped. Rings true for me. I make a decision to turn my life over to be healthy. Somewhere along the way i go without a solution that worked i go back to my old ways.

Now that i have solution alcohol just seems like a sloppy second to the real relief.

Whenever i relapse its a slow progression. Once a month turns into daily

Now i i want to take a substance. I ask myself. Do i want the effect. Or taste.

How i know im a alcoholic. Non alcholics dont think about this

Alcoholism is a disease of the mind,body and spirit!!! If left untreated it can cause severe damage to those who you love..please replay the tape of your life

There are also an abundance of scammers that try to prey on addicts who are here looking for connections in the community. Be careful people. If it feels off it probably is. And if it's too good to be true it definitely is.

1 is too many, 1000 is not enough
We have addict brains, that “can I maintain” debate is another trick the addiction uses to persuade us back into relapse. Think back to all the times you said “just one” or “I won’t drink too much.” Were you ever successful?
We simply don’t have the luxury normal brains do. Others can have a glass of wine or beer and leave it responsible, the addiction will persuade you to get more until you get sick again.
Is testing out this theory worth your 4 months of sobriety ?
