You may not have been fully aware of the “bad” things you did, but being aware that it happened while you were drunk and you still keep on getting drunk, seems like you’re tolerating the action. Yes, being an alcoholic may be a sickness you can’t control, but if you really have the will to stop, you can always do that. That is why I commend you for deciding to remain sober because I know that it is hard to give up drinking once you get addicted to it.<br /> <br /><a href="http://recoveryassociatespalmbeach.com/our-program/drug-specific-treatments/" rel="nofollow">Dinah Gerdts</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03538860642721644214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481487535671538648.post-1961014855420963112013-02-12T11:56:57.184+11:002013-02-12T11:56:57.184+11:00Completely agree, it's a sickness and not some...Completely agree, it's a sickness and not something wrong with you.Davidhttp://daviddraper.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481487535671538648.post-18798168669679012542013-02-10T17:00:03.869+11:002013-02-10T17:00:03.869+11:00I was searching for a blog specified towards alcoh...I was searching for a blog specified towards alcoholism, and I came across yours right away.

Strippers? Theft? If that's what you consider bad, your really missing out. I felt the same way, until I met a guy that really is bad. That changed me for good and now I drink moderately and everything is good, even after the weekend binge.

It's not the same. It's just letting yourself down. Once you stop letting yourself down you begin to realise that. You're not a bad person, just as you say, but rather an addict who used to let yourself down all the time. I hope you have a wonderful sober Christmas Bwendo.
