48. Divorced. 1 18 year old daughter. Casualty of 4 in patient, 3 out patient and lots of shitty memories. I would give anything to have my ex have control no matter the "sobriety ". But she couldn't. 6 weeks. 1 year. It doesn't work that way.


Damn dude. Sorry bout that. Your ex obviously had a problem. If my back was against the wall I could walk away from it. I've done it. More than once. Mind over matter.
But my back is not against the wall. I just like to drink. Mainly out of boredom. So. Where is the line drawn between an alcoholic and someone who likes to drink. No one has the answer I think because it's different for different people.

That's the point but I'm trying to say 'quitting' for alcoholics is an entirely different category. You don't quit. It's chemistry.

If you just drink to drink, fine. But I guarantee you know by now if it's a hobby or not.
