Dan came to Alcoholics Anonymous through the back door of Alanon. Once in AA recovery, he not only learned how to stay sober one day at a time, but also learned the value of service. Having served in various capacities, he shares his deep knowledge of the service structure of AA.
GIVING UP INSANITY
. . . where alcohol has been involved, we have been strangely insane.
ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 38
Alcoholism required me to drink, whether I wanted to or not. Insanity dominated my life and was the essence of my disease. It robbed me of the freedom of choice over drinking and, therefore, robbed me of all other choices. When I drank, I was unable to make effective choices in any part of my life and life became unmanageable. I ask God to help me understand and accept the full meaning of the disease of alcoholism.
