Fortunately alcoholism doesn't have the horrible stigma it once had,
so families can and should confront, and not hide the person's problem for the person or from others..
A person needs to take responsibility for themselves. As Clammer says," has to want it for himself[herself] not others".
Always takes the low of lows for an awakening.
Alcoholics believe there is no other happy life aside from drinking and are afraid to
give it up. Ya can't covince them otherwise.
The ones i know who have gone to AA or couseling, seen the light and gave it up, one for 27 years now, have never been happier in their life.
Tough row to hoe.
