Re: Some of my former friends
My parents quit drinking within 2 weeks of eachother in 1990 and went to AA meetings for at least a solid year afterwards, they've been clean ever since, which, imo, is amazing.
They dragged me to some meetings when I was 11 years old and I'll tell ya...I get plastered occassionally like many adults, but alchohol will never consume me like it did these folks. I'm eternally grateful that I sat in on some of these meetings. That is a place where I never want to be ever again.
EDIT: Evagaba, great post. I really enjoyed reading it. I don't get to witness this type of plight on a daily basis.
