“Liquor ceased to be a luxury; it became a necessity.” Page 5 — There are many words that we can use to describe alcoholism. An obsession. A compulsion. A need. A necessity.

We who are alcoholic are entirely, completely, absolutely powerless to stop drinking and to stay stopped. Some people can stop or moderate their drinking. We can’t.

Help one; save two. Happy Wednesday!
