Alcohol

How do you know when you have a Problem? When you drink alone? When you have a drink every night? When you drink to intoxication more than once a week? More than twice? Three times? When you wake up on your day off and think "goody, beer for breakfast?" When you think that and it's not your day off? When you can't stop after the second beer? When you know that and have the second one anyway? When you lose count after 5? 10? 15? And wake up at the end of the Line? When all you want when you wake up hungover is more to drink? When your calories are more from Booze than food? When it jeopardises your Job?

I don't know. I wish I had The Answers. I wish I had the solution.

How do you make it better? When your hands shake so bad that you can't hold a glass. When you wake up drenched in sweat? When the Dreams come back? When you want a drink so badly that you can taste it? And you know you could have one, but it always leads to two, which leads to so many you lose count.

How do you change your image? How do you replace the Flavour? And don't say Non-alcoholic beer, because it's not the same. How do you replace the activity?

I don't know yet. But it's time to figure it out. and hopefully it will stick this time.
