The single most important fact about me is that I am an alcoholic, because it affects my emotions, my psyche, my spiritual life, my relationships. It affects every area, you know, physical, mental, spiritual, and in the book I like to read it says: until I straighten out the spiritual, the emotional and physical will not straighten out, because this is as much I mean, it's a problem of the mind.
