I hate stupid idiots who call alcoholism a disease. It's not a disease, you're just an idiot with no willpower. Try calling that a disease to people with MS or Chrons who don't choose their symptoms.

trying to get well
Why don't you recognize your siblings lies,embellishments, and various addictions as manifestations of the same condition you're afflicted with. Shame on you for trotting out the fact that you have a valid diagnosis then dissing them in the same breath!!! This behavior forces mentally ill people underground instead of seeking help!!!

trying to get well may realize what she is doing is wrong Annie but she HASN'T told her therapist..
that said, the therapist cannot help her uncover why she is lying.. please advise her to tell her therapist so that she can move forward with her healing.
