No matter how bad all the self pitying, apologist, self absorbed, morons who just want an excuse to not take responsibility for their actions alcoholism DOES NOT fit the scientific/medical criteria for a disease. AA is a joke. There are far superior alcohol recovery methods available. For disclosure purposes, alcoholism runs in my family and none of them were ever pathetic enough to blame it on a disease. Poor self control maybe, but never a disease.
