The Ibrox Derry 9,023 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 It is true that alcoholism is sometimes coupled by another serious and underlying mental health issue, or with illnesses such as OCD, anxiety and depression. These need to be treated as separate entities, and the recovery rates and times vary from person to person and illness to illness. When it comes to alcoholism or any addiction to a mind altering substance the greatest factor for success is the Willingness to stop. You could employ the best counsellor in the land or go to the best treatment centre in the World, but without the Willingness you are completely wasting your time and that of others, plus giving false hope to your family, friends and loved ones. I am very fortunate, when I put the cork on the bottle many years ago, all my fears, anxieties and depression went with it, for some though it is just the start of the journey. I do not get complacent though, as one slip and I will find myself back in the gutter where it all began. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Until he smashes the Illusion that some day some how he shall have the ability to control his drinking then I fear for his future but there Is always hope. As you probably know there Is a place where he could go and recover but only when he throws In the towel entirely and not a corner at a time.

The illusion you described is the greatest tragedy of the alcoholic drinker, as you rightly say it needs to be smashed, that illusion is a lie, a complete and utter diabolical lie.
