This is a good idea. We can challenge ourselves to keep off it.
Personally, I've found that people who haven't ever been addicted to anything really can't understand the struggle. It helps a lot to be able to talk to people who get it.
Yeah, i definitely use it to "be happy" like pissing yourself, to stay warm in a blizzard.
I used to think it helped me deal with all my past shame and regret. I've come to realize it was making it way worse. It's like a demonic possession really. (if you're full blown alcoholic anyway)
Agree. I've been sober for a good long while now. But when I first put down the drink it helped to be able to relate to folks that understood I didn't "like to drink" I was addicted - which are two very different things.
Yeah, it's kind of funny looking through some of the comments here. The ones who don't "get it" are pretty obvious.
