Lovingly expressed!!! Alone, it's a start! Love and support plans a part too!! Well done!!!❤️❤️💕
This was extremely spot on! Very well done!
Lonzo, I'm guessing you never implied that people don't need support groups like AA and to admit that they are powerless over addiction and need a higher power to help them become sober..you just want us to admit our addictions and get help.
If only it were that simple. Men have tried to follow that advice for a long time, only to become "dry drunks"--sober, mean, insufferable & unsociable. No man (or woman) is an island. We all need the support of others who care.

Take a stance, not a chance, just quit, good on buddy 😊
❤
Sometimes it is the simplest of advice that cuts straight to the point that means the most. Well said! Subdue and overcome!
That’s a plain and simple advice. 👍🤟🏽💪🏾unfortunately a lot people have problems with self control when it comes to alcohol. They say alcoholism is a disease. 🙏🏽 My brother is rehab fighting the battle now. I pray for him everyday. Sometimes you need a good support system
