"We learned we had to fully concede to our innermost selves that we were alcoholics. This is the first step in recovery. The delusion that we are like other people, or presently may be, has to be smashed.
We alcoholics are men and
women who have lost the ability to control our drinking. We know that no real
alcoholic ever recovers control. All of us felt at times that we were
regaining control, but such intervals - usually brief - were inevitably
followed by still less control, which led in time to pitiful and
incomprehensible demoralization."
