Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life.

It is in fact an act of great courage to walk into an AA meeting for the first time. Many people with severe drinking problems simply lack the courage to take this first step under any circumstances. They commonly hide their fear by critical, often cynical remarks about AA and the people who do have the courage to attend. They may indulge themselves with elaborate philosophical, scientific and even political rationalizations for why they will never attend a single AA meeting. But at bottom they are simply too afraid to walk through the door. Still worse: they are unable or unwilling to be honest with themselves and others about their real feelings and hence continue to cloak their fear behind irrelevant and insincere theoretical objections. (See Obstacles to Recovery and Resistances to Alcoholics Anonymous Attendance for more about shame, dishonesty and personal exceptionalism in addictive illness.)

Hello James,

When you are in that dark place and everything looks impossible remember that there is always hope. You dont need to think too far ahead so dont worry too much about things that could happen next week or next month.

Why not concentrate on doing just one thing today. Call that AA number that was posted earlier and tell them how you feel. Ask if they would get a couple of members to call and talk to you. Maybe you could go to a meeting with them and it would not be so scary if you had someone with you.

Dont leave it until tomorrow but make that call right now. You can also send a private message to me or other people here on D.S. if you have any questions.

    Can you identify these rom-coms from just a screenshot from the middle of the films? This is a multiple choice quiz so even if you're not entirely sure you can always take a guess and at least have a 25% chance of getting it right anyway, so why not have a go?! https://www.buzzfeed.com/alysaurus688/rom-com-screenshot-trivia-quiz
