When you enter into recovery, that quote, let me follow if I must, the woman I am becoming will catch me. You are throwing yourself into this abyss, trusting that the person that comes out is going to be the one that can live without the booze. The reward of withdrawal reward of this leap of faith is the shittiest shit that ever should it. It's very tempting to want to turn around and grab back onto the edge and just sort of crawl back up there where you haven't yet decided to live with your old self. But first you have to take this leap. There's no cart before the horse.
