    Alocoholism is a crafty, coniving disease. It robs a person of their full potential and destroys relationships. For some reason I'm drawn to men who end up being alchoholics and it never ends good, I rarely drink so I don't understand why I fall for guys who do...

    Its a mental obsession and a physical addiction. Its powerful , baffling and cunning. It's insanity. Insanity being, Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Go online and read "The Big Book".

    With all addictions, people need to learn to control their urges.

    I think they still have a chance to change they way of living as long as they have a support system at their back. I am really thankful that I found one. If you are interested in becoming alcohol free, visit this site: abusetreatmentcenters.net

    It's possible to quit drinking. But I think most people would agree that you can't quit for good without help.

    I'm a recovering alcoholic.I've been clean for 8 years.Alcoholism is a disease just as cancer is.I will never be cured,I will die an alcohoic.All I can do is not drink TODAY.I attend at least 5 AA meetings a week.AA doesn't just help me stay sober,it helps me to live a happy sober life.If I kept up drinking and drugging I would be dead,in prison,or in a mental institution.
    If anybody doubts that being an addict is a miserable life,I can tell you that sober is the way to live

    It is a sad and almost incurable disease. My mother suffers from it. It has caused a great rift between us. Wonderful moments have been reduced to pitiable sessions of "celebration" that left her passed out on the floor, as well as terrible moments that have has her seek solace at the end of a bottle, resulting in the same result. Sadly, those who do not desire help will not accept it, or make use of it.
