“It is not how much you drink or how often you drink but what happens when you do drink! The last person to know you are an alcoholic is you!”

Thank you Chris!  It is the little comments like these that sum up true experience and are capable of helping others to enlighten to the seriousness and gravity of the problem of alcohol addiction and abuse.  As you said:  The person addicted is often the last person to realize it. 

Addiction is difficult on a person physically, mentally and last, but not least: spiritually.  When addiction gets bad, the alcoholic may find himself doing terrible things to feed or hide his addiction!  And the addiction takes its toll on loved ones as well – in many ways.

Thank you again Chris.
