[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I’ve noticed is that there are many alcoholics walking around who probably have no idea they’re alcoholics. They can’t even get through their child’s practice without a whole bottle of wine in their purse. My husband and I were shocked when the dad hopped out of his car at our kids’ 9 a.m. game with a beer in his hand. It’s truly disturbing. I stopped drinking back in 2005 and don’t miss it at all. I don't need it to socialize or have a good time and I definitely don't need it to relax. [/quote] The stereotype of the "addict" keeps a lot of people who really need it away from recovery. You don't have to destroy your whole life to recognize you have a problem. Rock bottom is simply the point where you stop digging. And if you're bringing your own booze to a kids' game because you can't be sober for a couple hours, you really ought to stop digging. [/quote]
