    • Close Alcoholism

      Sober 8 years

      Treatments

      12 Step Program Working / Worked
      Progress not perfection. Stive each day to get better and work the steps
      AA Meetings Working / Worked
      My life line. Without AA meetinng I would drink. Tried it 8 years ago. I replapsed.
      Cold Turkey Not Working
      Stopping drinking isn't the hard part its staying stopped and if you want to stay stopeed you have to change. Drinking is just a symptom of a deeper problem.
      Sleep Somewhat Helpful
      Don't let yourself get too tired, too hungry or too lonely. Sometimes rest helps
