who is killing your spirit?


There are so many reasons why women turn to drinking. For me, and many others, it was a gradual roughening up of my confidence, a wearing down of
my resilience, a slimy fatigue on the face of life’s challenges; a series of
mental and physical batterings that made me feel so low about myself that drinking seemed like a reasonable thing to do, week in, week out, year in,
year out, decades in , decades out. More than three quarters of my life
spent relying on alcohol to make it all better.
