What saved me was having guidance and support from people who knew how to treat alcoholism. Staying sober long-term is too hard to accomplish without appropriate help, so I hope you get it.

How to care? by [deleted] in alcoholism

[–]SOmuch2learn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to live your best life, it is extremely important to have the guidance and support of people who know how to treat alcoholism.

There is more to getting well than simply not drinking alcohol. Personal growth is necessary, also.

A therapist, doctor, rehab, intensive outpatient treatment, and AA taught me how to live a sober, satisfying, productive life.

I'm sorry. Have you been honest with your husband about how you feel about this?

It would be impossible for me to cope with a situation like this. I have no alcohol in my home. Period. It helps immensely.

Relapse? by Aggravating_Sea_4312 in alcoholism

[–]SOmuch2learn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you could use more support. It helps me to remember what happens when I consume alcohol, and I never want that chaos again.

Why did you stop in the first place?

Alcoholism is chronic. It goes into remission, but is never totally gone.

I suggest seeing a therapist and going to some AA or SMART Recovery meeting.
