I can’t live without the drink and will certainly die with it. These are strong words but the truth. I fight each minute of every hour sometimes to fight the longing I have for just a glass of something, anything. My ability to stop after one drink is nonexistent. This is a mental issue more than a physical one. Even when my body has had enough and refuses to keep down what I have already ingested, I still insist on replacing what was just lost. I nearly always try to defy the body’s natural refusal of yet more alcohol. The result is always devistation. If I know this is the reaction and consiquence of my actions why do I continue to do it?
