Of course you have a drinking problem. Alcohol dependence is a totally normal adaptation to living in a bat-shit crazy world that rewards narcissism, dishonesty, violence, and self-obsession.

This isn’t about white-knuckling it or doing recovery the “right” way. It’s about softening, staying, and learning how to feel again. What unfolded as I wrote wasn’t a textbook or a treatment plan. It was a living experience, my own and others, of what recovery looks like when we stop trying to think our way through pain and begin to feel our way toward safety.

Many alcoholics who might gain life-saving sobriety are turned away from Alcoholics Anonymous by an insistence on belief in a god, specifically, a Christian god.
