It's SOOOO hard to be real and admit we might have a little tiny bit of an addiction! DENIAL is the first sign you are fooling yourself. Think of this...we will stand before God someday and give an account for the things we've done in 'secret' AND in front of EVERYONE!! Now, Let's Face it.....WE are usually the LAST to know we got "a problem" WELCOME. There is a community of support unfolding before you now.....

Alcohol strips the body of nutrients (esp vitamin B's)and can bring our body into a malnutrition state after a time of binging. See this interesting study by Bill W. and what a few of his alcoholic buddies tried! Nutrients are vital to our recovery of any toxic state we put ourselves into with our vices!

These words are still ringing in my ears. Everyone was having a good time on a holiday as I noticed someone I love may have had too much to drink and as my concern or worry brought me to say the word's "Gee it seems like you've had a bit too much to drink today" and there was the Epiphany reply that put me in my place. "Hey, it's not your river!"
I am powerless over what other people say and do. I can only control my own actions or thoughts and pray for those whom I care about. God hears my prayers and the others are for Him to lead and guide into sobriety and safety. It is none of my business really what the other people do as long as I am not enabling someone else's bad habit!
Soon after I came to my senses, a good time was had by all .... woo hoo including ME!
