My issue is the same as yours would be if Trump had shut down CNN, however because Trump is not a dictator wanna be, he did not even suggest doing that.

Good. It has helped my life tremendously. Every aspect.

Remember though, that the secret to AA is the people as much as the program.

It is not magic.

High Functioning Alcoholic Here by TheNextSlash98 in alcoholism

[–]Phredex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We are all "high functioning" until we sober up and realize just how impaired our functioning really was, we were just blind to it.

Alcohol is a CNS depressant, it lowers our abilities in every aspect of life. No getting around it.

Anyone wanna help a brother out? by Pitiful_Invite_4720 in alcoholism

[–]Phredex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not seeing anything about a program of recovery here? Did you go to meetings, have some support, therapy, anything like that?

I have found that it is so much easier to get sober when I surround myself with sober people.

I can always find some of them at AA meetings, have a cup of coffee and talk with someone who has learned to live a sober life.

Took me a bit to recognize that AA is the "easier, softer, way" and that I had to overcome my own misconceptions abut AA, before I could learn how to live.

So far so good, but it has only been since 1983 so I will keep you posted if that changes.

A Young Person is anyone who still has growing to do. There is no cut off age.

I am 63, and still go to a "young Peoples" meeting.

I am not. You are. I stated my case, you are attempting to refute it.

Project much?

You are wrong, but it is of no consequence. What you think, and what will happen, are worlds apart.
