Are you thinking that maybe just one little drink won’t hurt?
Are you thinking that this time you can control those cravings and stop after a couple?
Are you thinking that maybe if you switch to just beer it will make a difference?
Are you thinking that this time you will be able to drink like everyone else?
Are you thinking that maybe it just wasn’t as bad as you imagined it was?
Are you thinking that you just need a little more willpower and everything will be alright?
If you are thinking any of those things, then you are thinking way too much.
Welcome to the perpetual illusion of all alcoholics….it will be different this time! Unfortunately, if you are an alcoholic, it will never be different. The plain and simple truth is that you will never be able to drink normally again. Those days are gone if in fact they ever existed. You do not magically regain control of your drinking. The disease has advanced too far and you are on a one-way street headed for more heartache, more loss and more destruction.
