Two Alternatives
If you are as seriously alcoholic as we were, we believe there is no middle-of-
the-road solution. We were in a position where life was becoming impossible,
and if we had passed into the region from which there is no return through
human aid, we had but two alternatives: One was to go on to the bitter end,
blotting out the consciousness of our intolerable situation as best we could;
and the other, to accept spiritual help.
