Why I Drank?

Why I drank!

There was always an excuse: If not to dull the pain; Then to heighten the celebration!

——————————————————————————–

Reason to drink: Family Problems
Reason NOT to drink: Family Problems

Reason to drink: Money Problems
Reason NOT to drink: Money Problems

Reason to drink: Problems on the job.
Reason NOT to drink: Problems on the job.

Plus a load of others……..

It’s not my fault.
I didn’t create these problems.
You don’t know what its like being being me.
I can’t help it, my father was a drunk, and I take after him.
You don’t understand.
I can quit anytime I want.
I drink a little – so what?
Everybody drinks now and then.
With a marriage like mine, what do you expect?
You have no idea what I’ve been through.
Do I try to tell you how to live your life?
You just don’t want me to have any fun.
I’d lose all my friends if I stop drinking.
Go preach to someone else.
I don’t need your advice or help.
What would you know?
It’s my birthday.
Here’s to you Santa, Easter Bunny, or (fill in the blank).
I just lost my best friend.
I just lost my job.
I just lost my best dog.
I just lost my wife.
I just lost my kids.
I just lost my car.
I just lost my home.
I just lost.
If you just had my Wife?

My First Sponsor told me If I could find a reason to Drink, Then come to him with it, and He would Drink with me. But He said don’t come to me with excuses. Only a Reason to Drink. Since That time I haven’t found a Reason to Take That First Drink.
