When to Cut Off Relations With an Alcoholic Sibling?
Question by Fran D: When to cut off relations with an alcoholic sibling?
My older brother has been an alcoholic for over 30 years. Detox, private treatment on multiple occasions to no avail. Numerous lost jobs, broken relationships, health issues, etc. Still he drinks. And then he will call, and ramble incoherently and generally cause all matter of stress and anger. When my mother was alive, I would go out of my way to try to help him: invite him to stay with me, support him, introduce him to my friends, encourage him to attend AA or treatment or both, try to get him on his feet. This never worked, and inevitably there would be some meltdown which would result in a tremendous fight and on one memorable occasion I had to have him evicted because he was destroying my property.

Treatment For Alcohol Abuse: How to deal with controlled drinking in alcoholism with Dr Rodriquez and Delray Center
Alcoholism and controlled drinking Lets talk about controlled drinking in alcoholism; controlled drinking is the ultimate fantasy of most people with alcoholism. They would like to go back to the day when they use to be able to drink in some kind of controlled matter that was not pathological. Even though most people with alcoholism did have some point in their life where they were able to do this, at this point in their life once they have an established diagnosis for the condition of alcoholism it’s really not possible anymore. This is because what is called neuro adaptive changes, the brain has already begun changes from the heavy exposure to the alcohol that cannot be reversed. The brain becomes hypersensitive to drinking even through small quantities of drinking, even over time the tiniest amounts of alcohol will cause an exaggerated reaction compared to somebody who does not have an alcohol problem. With this reason control drinking is a recipe for relapse even the tiniest amount, even a sip of alcohol will trigger a relapse if not right away very shortly after. Usually within days usually not much longer than a couple of weeks but usually within days if not hours. So controlled drinking is something that is strongly discouraged when there is a condition of alcoholism because it will set the person up for a relapse if not trigger a relapse immediately.

Signs of Alcohol: What Is Wrong With Me… Advice Please :(?
Question by Aunt Jemima: What is wrong with me… advice please :(?
I’m having a hard time understanding what is going on.
Lately, I have had a lot on my plate. This has been my first year of high school, so its been a rough transition. The homework loads have been bigger than ever before, and due to the classes I signed up for next year, I will have an even larger sum. However, I am prepared for this. Another thing I have had to deal with is a boy. I have liked this boy for about 2 years– I practically love him. However, he only likes me as a friend, which is fine, but instead of talking to me about things he’s just trying to shove me away. Also, I have lost some of my best girlfriends due to their poor decisions to do drugs & alcohol, so I have been hanging out with more guys. My mom, thinks that just because I hang out with guys, I’m up to no good. I SWEAR that I have never done a single drug or even had a sip of alcohol, & I’m still a virgin. My mom was crying the other day when I got home because she was reading “signs your child is involved with drugs or alcohol” & is almost convinced I am.
