Am I An Alcoholic…part Of Me Thinks Not, Part Of Me Sees How I Am Progressing?
Posted by: Alan in Alcohol Counseling, tags: Alcoholic...part, Part, Progressing, Sees, ThinksI don’t love alcohol….frankly, I drink because I moved to Chicago from Southern California and don’t have a connection. However, my job is so boring and undemanding that most days I walk two blocks to the drug store, buy a fifth of cheap rum or bourbon with a 2L or two of Diet Coke or Pepsi, and mix the two under my desk.
I have no friends, no girlfriend (partially because I don’t like how I look, the girls I was able to attract, and have little interest in traditional intercourse)….hence alcohol is the only “company” I have except for weed, which I prefer but cannot get without making a 300-mile round trip.
I can’t say I’m totally dependent on alcohol just yet, but I still find that my existence is improved and not impaired by knowing that I can get buzzed pretty easily.
Just to add…I doubt counseling or AA is for me. I am an atheist, I have seen many counselors in my life, and derive no comfort from knowing that some “higher power” loves me no matter what.
