Sober Podcast 228 - My Situation is Different
This audio is a personalized response to someone who asked me "but what about these circumstances, my life is hard, these things and these things."
And no matter what day you're on today, there's a message in here for you.
I received this from J: after she heard my personalized reply:
"It's really interesting to me that you said (and of course this is true) that I would have ended up overdrinking whether I married my widower or not ... I see that you are of course right - I'd be an overdrinker with an overdrinker's brain whether I had this particular job or these particular kids as my responsibility or not. So. That's the truth. Wolfie will tell my very receptive brain that drinking anaesthetic would be a good idea. NO MATTER WHAT"

Question: How tempting is it to think that our situation is different? (this is a trick question; wolfie is an anus).
