New Alcoholism Recovery Book – Ad Was on TV?
Nov 10th
Question by toddly1: New Alcoholism Recovery Book – Ad Was on TV?
Within the past six months I have seen advertisements for a new book on alcoholism recovery. The ad features a father and son talking about how their book works. I am interested in learning more about it, but can’t remember the name of the book nor their URL. I’m pretty sure I will recognize it once I see the name.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your answer about The Cure, but that isn’t the one I’m looking for. The one I am looking for talks about recovering, not about curing.
Best answer:
Answer by Altru-man
I think it’s called the cure but I don’t give it much validity. As a recovered alcoholic for 17 yrs plus today ( to the day ) I found only one thing that worked with my alcoholism. These books don’t approach the curious twist that happens to alcoholics, namely the phenomenon of craving that develops when an alcoholic begins to drink that makes it impossible for the alcoholic to stop. There is NO cure for this component of alcoholism except for total abstinence from alcohol . The other components of alcoholism, namely the mental and emotional factors, sometimes take years of therapy to bring about a recovery state of mind and lifestyle. An alcoholic can NEVER safely consume alcohol regardless of how long it’s been since their last drink.

The chances are slim but I would take it to court. If you were not driving while using there should not be a issue

Question by sherry p: where would i go for information on how to help with recovery of alcoholism?
i have a ex who is wanting to work things out when he gets out of rehab and starts recovery, i want to help him but i don’t know anything about his recovery and want is best for me to do to help him through this. i live in texas if that helps
Best answer:
Answer by Timothy
I’m sure they have AA meetings and i think you should encourage him to participate or continue to go to AA and see if he would like u to go with him, if u would be willing to. Otherwise you can find an AA meeting by maybe talking to the court house, and go find information if your really interested in helping him. I think that it’s outstanding that you are trying to help him through this, i think more people should strive to help people recover when they choose to, because a lot of people never choose to stop. Thank you.

How well do alcohol recovery programs actually work?
Jan 30th
Question by almintaka: How well do alcohol recovery programs actually work?
Hi Everyone,
Alcoholics Anonymous (“AA”, spiritual), Rational Recovery (“RR”, cognitive), SMART (cognitive), Save Ourselves (“SOS”, cognitive) and other alcohol recovery programs all claim varying levels of success in helping alcoholics on the road to recovery. However, there is a lot of controversy surrounding their claims, as even a quick search on the internet will reveal. Viewing this chaos of opinions from “outside the box”, it certainly seems as though they’re all blowing smoke. Anecdotal arguments are used, tabloid-style quotations are touted as being authentic, and “my way or the highway” rationalizing is often used. One thing they all have in common is that apparently none of them has a handle on real statistics (though I could be wrong here; I just haven’t found any). In addition, independent studies (NIAA, Dawson) have shown that these programs are no more successful than no program at all. What’s your opion? Do one or more of these programs work better than nothing?
Best answer:
Answer by Rachel
I think any recovery program works only as well as the time & persistance the addict puts into staying clean.
