Are you an alcoholic?

Question

I don't care what any of you say cuz when you say "no," you're really an alcoholic cuz the first stage is denial.

Answer 1

I don't drink alchohol period. It's not good for your health. Seen to many people die alcoholism.

Answer 2

I feel like I would love to just get drunk all of the time and just not worry about life BUT I can't because of my babies and I am scared too My mom was an alcoholic and drugie she would have rather had her alcohol and her drugs than her kids. I think that that choice is VERY wrong but I am a better person because of it I learned to stay away from all of the alcohol and drugs because of the fear of being like her I am not dening anything because God knows that I feel like it alot of times but I make the choice not too for my sake and my kids sake because they mean more to me than any drink could ever mean. That is a good question though thank you for asking it.

IF YOU ARE LIKE I WAS;

You are sitting there, not sure exactly why, you’ve not yet admitted it to yourself. That conceivably this will get me out of my latest batch of trouble I have gotten myself into, just another mess. Knowing that you’re Family, Job, Judge, PO, or some outside force is placing a fear into you that is causing you to hideout, hoping to avoid its consequences. So here I sit…
I recall my first time in rehab, the sensation I adopted, I just let “it” get out of hand. I was not to a certain magnitude, like the people this staff was talking about. I only had two goals for the day, first to discern these roommates I had been assigned to and then fabricate my narrative to keep them away from me.
Next, I needed to take stock of the staff; I am a specialist at judging people. A defense I use and rely on, so why if they are professing to be able to cure me do they work here? This is just a business to make a paycheck and that’s why they are working here? They are all full of crap and since I see a lot of losers here, just going through the revolving door, I must be right. I’ll just watch and see.

If they come at me, I best be on my guard and prepared to defend myself, emotionally and psychologically always holding in reserve a physical outburst. My fear has me caught between powerlessness and insanity. My only survival skills are to shut down and attack back.
Having been through a few rehabs, I was sitting there more relaxed, they can’t touch me. My walls are up and I will decide when and if I let someone in. This superior attitude made me more comfortable, yet killed my chances of receiving help. So I sit there and just watch the new guys and the funniest of them all, the broken. The Staff playing tennis with the new and old. Just hoping that I might jump in at some point and my joining in the game. If I don’t engage I gain nothing and if I do I risk exposure, what do I do?
Broken, I was, when I last entered rehab. It’s funny that the previous situations I have describe where all me. These pitiful stages I experienced realized an understanding of myself I never thought achievable even probable. If you fall into this category consider yourself blessed and do not fall into the other groups, show them of your sincerity. Open your mind, heart and soul. Altought the only answer I have for you is that what works for me is to submit, surrender to processes that will free you from the secrets that drive you and your fears that control you.
The greatest one thing I learned at rehab was to “Trust”, I first laid out a crumb, and it felt safe. I then put down a cookie, it again felt safe and then I put out for a man to see a part of my fears. What the counselor did for me was to gain my trust. My trust about my “Secrets” the things that were killing me. Now I was ready to work with a Sponsor and work with others who also lacked “Trust”. Just try it, even if it’s a crumb…

I have been Clean and Sober for several years now and would like to share this with you, If this is your first day at your new rehab, don’t screw around, have fun, trust the staff, be honest with yourself and don’t worry about that thing called a Higher Power, Its already here or you wouldn’t be there!!!

Nope, nor am I in denial. My son's wife is a drunk, their kids are miserable and screwed up and he's desperately unhappy - enough to turn anyone off drink.
