Inability to Stop
To be gravely affected, one does not necessarily have to drink
a long time nor take the quantities some of us have. This is
particularly true of women. Potential female alcoholics often turn
into the real thing and are gone beyond recall in a few years.
Certain drinkers, who would be greatly insulted if called alcoholics,
are astonished at their inability to stop.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (How It Works) p. 33
