I have a bad alcohol problem. Alcohol has been the root of everything bad in my life.
Losing my 50K plus job last year, my divorce from my first wife, hell even my ending my USAF career.
I've tried to stop numerous times, and always find a way to rationalize it to myself that this time, it will be different. And it never is.
I can't drink, plain and simple. Not "just one" at a party or "only a few" with the boys during a football game.
I can't. For me. it's none or way too many. I've radically restructured my life in an effort to quit, and it's a fight every day.
I have my higher power, and my wife along with me, and my not so strong will, trying to make it.
This is the hardest thing I've ever done. I see a beer commercial and I want a 30 pack.
I wish anyone trying to quit the best of luck. It's tough, I know. Good luck and God bless.
