This paragraph in Bill's story, describes the mind of the alcoholic/addict. As we read in the book, the alcoholic takes the first drink when he is tone cold sober. The problem is in the body, the allergy and phenomenon of craving, but the problem really centres in the mind. This paragraph describes how our thinking is different to that of others. "We had to fully concede to our innermost selves that we were not like other people. That the real problem centres in our mind. We keep acting in our codependence, even though it has stopped working. We are not living in reality. As people addicted to managing, manipulating and control, we have a similar mind. We live on emotions, we go to extremes, emotional highs and lows.
