mind: It's not that big of a deal. You can buy one more bottle. What's one more bottle?
me: One more day of being crazy!
mind: No. You can't just quit after a night of two bottles. You've got to get one more.
me: Yeah, but it's not just one more.
mind: Sure it is, you can do it.
me: You've said that before.
mind: Yeah, but this time, we can do it.
me: You say 'we' now, but you've said that before.
mind: This time is different.
me: How, exactly?
mind: Because it's for good.
me: You've said that before.
mind: Not like this. We mean it.
me: Ok, let's try.
What ends up happening:
I drink more than one bottle. Maybe not two, but clearly more than one. The next night, the same conversation happens.
Repeat ad nauseum.
