I saw where this had been posted back when, but thought it was a good time to post again.  Have a safe, sober day!!

Alcohol Always Lied to Me

I Drank for Courage...and woke up night after night horrified.
I Drank for Sophistication...and became crude.
I Drank to find Peace...and ignited a war within myself.
I Drank to be Friendly...and became argumentative and nasty.
I Drank to be Sexy...and turned people off.
I Drank so that I could Relate to Others...and I babbled.
I Drank to put down Loneliness...and found myself retracting more and more into my shell.

I Drank to Relax... and woke up tense.
I Drank to be Entertaining... and became an obnoxious clown.
I Drank to Live More Fully... and contemplated suicide.
I Drank for Adventure... and discovered disaster.
I Drank to be more Honest... and insulted my friends.
I Drank to Quiet my Nerves...and woke up with hangover jangles.

I Drank to Feel Better...and ended up sick and throwing up.
I Drank to have fun...and passed out in the middle of a party.
I Drank to Pep Myself Up and ended up exhausted.
I Drank to feel Successful... a Big Shot...but ended up a failure.

I Drank for Security... and became afraid of my shadow.
I Drank to Feel Better about Myself... and ended up hating me.
I Drank to prove I could handle Alcohol... and ended up knowing it controlled me.

& 1 more......


Thoughts at 4am...........

If I am an alocholic I shouldn't drink - If I am not an alcoholic I don't need to.


People who aren't alcoholics don't lie in bed at 4am wondering if they are alcoholics !
