A message to the Jewish alcoholic from the Alcoholics Anonymous website.
"When I was on the sauce, I wasn't a Jew, I wasn't an American, and I wasn't a man. I was just a drunk, loveless and unloving, respectful of no one and nothing, least of all myself."

This so powerful, i read the whole story; when i got sober, my mother said the same thing, "jews arent alcoholics". Sometimes i feel like there is this unspoken false belief or misunderstanding of the "the chosen people" as if we cannot be touched by other things human. it's killings us. some how these misconceptions have to be mastered amongst the communities. i know there have been efforts made but to what extent? anyway, it makes me sad.
