Now I allow myself a single alcoholic drink from time to time and I truly enjoy it. There's nothing like an ice cold Coors light banquet while trout fishing at Moose Lake in Montana. This has been successful for me for 15 years and at this point I don't even crave alcohol anymore. My personal opinion is all of that talk about addiction being a disease is just enabling and is part of victim culture.
I completely agree!
