Lets take this by the numbers…
#1 You are afraid of losing your job because of your drinking, and you are afraid you can’t stop or stay stopped on your own.
#2 You might lose your job anyway because of your drinking.
#3 You are afraid you might throw your marrage away because of your drinking.
#4 You are trying to do something about your drinking alone, and you are afraid that you can’t do it.
and #5 You know about Alcoholics Anonymous, and you know that it works!
9, if something doesn’t change in your life, it’s all over anyway. You know that.
Your colleges and spouse suspect, or know now that you are drinking too much, they are not fools. Where I come from, there are AA meetings for nurses, doctors, lawyers, cops, all kinds of professionals.
Find one, and go! For drunks like me, the alternatives to recovery really suck.
