Charlie C: Understanding and Embracing Steps 6 and 7 in AA
“The thing that makes us distinct from non,-alcoholics, as I like to call them, is that when I run into a wall where my insides are churned up with fear and anger and sadness and despair and envy and all those things I talked about, I drink.”
