alcoholics can't rise above it? really? i worked with a guy who realized he had a problem and quit drinking years ago. i think he rose above it quite nicely.

There are plenty of people that can't stop drinking. It does seem like a simple concept - just stop drinking. It doesn't work that way.

Some of us have been turned upside down by somone who just could not stop drinking.
