Practicing Alcoholics
Few indeed are the practicing alcoholics who have any idea how irrational
they are, or seeing their irrationality, can bear to face it. Some will be willing
to term themselves "problem drinkers," but cannot endure the suggestion that
they are in fact mentally ill. They are abetted in this blindness by a world which
does not understand the difference between sane drinking and alcoholism.
