Hey that is a nasty condition. How is your recovery going, or are you still recovering??

I thank the Lord for your recovery from the more severe condition you might have been rendered.

You don't waste any time diving into the deep end of the pool.

Yes, I quit before reaching wet brain. My sobriety date is 30 June 2002.

I had my last cigarette (a 70 day habit) on January 14 2003.

I'm an atheist AA member; there are 14 (of 32 members) atheists in my home group. The ONLY condition for AA membership is the desire to stop drinking.

I got sober after a rare moment of alcoholic lucidity.IE "If I don't stop,I'm going to die,or worse". I made a committed decision to stop. I then reached out and accepted help wherever I found it; AA, medication, (to prevent withdrawal seizures,which can be fatal) a month as a rehab outpatient followed by a year in a support group, hypnotherapy, (of limited help) the love and support of my family and my best friend--and my own will power. I have the desire to drink most days,but not the compulsion.If things get bad, I ring or visit my [atheist] AA sponsor or my friend.

I do not thank any higher power,but I thank you for your comments,which I accept as sincere.

You're most welcome Padraic, congratulations in beating your addictions too.

Once the Lord becomes truth to you everything else follows accordingly.

We got ourselves a ginyu-wine conversion, ladies and gentlemen.

Old Lady Smith passed out.

I think it was the holy spirit.

Quick, someone speak in tongues!

[TruthWorthy]

I don't think that's the purpose of speaking in tongues. Personally, I don't believe in it.

Will you miss the agonizing day after headaches after getting plastered, or not being able to do cool stuff (like go to the zoo, see a play, the planetarium, etc.) because you're so hung over you couldn't get out of bed? I'm not sure if I ever was an alcoholic, but I was once a drunk. The worse of my depraved behavior is many years behind me, but I'm able to responsibly enjoy a few beers once in a while (it's particularly enjoyable when I go see a baseball or basketball game). But drinking too much is simply a symptom of anxiety or maybe even mild depression (or in many cases anyway). It's terrible for your dating life (and correspondingly your sex life). No matter what anyone says, you're always better off talking to women when sober (or no more than a beer or two deep).

Could you imagine someone bursting out in tongues in a Catholic mass (I'm cracking up just thinking about it). My family background is a Catholic protestant mix (and the protestant is mainstream Presbyterian/Episcopalian sort of stuff), so I've been to a mass or two in my life (picture it, right when the alter boy rings the bells, someone bursts out in the middle of the church in a frenzy of gibberish flopping around like a fish out of water .... I think everyone would think they're having a seizure).

When I think of people still doing stuff like speaking in tongues in the United States in 2010, it's one of those wtf things
