Question by Sarah M: How to help a friend with a drinking problem?
My friend has a drinking problem. He is in complete denial that this is a problem. I have known him for over 20 years and I really want him to see what he is doing to himself. He thinks that because he doesn’t drink every day it is not a problem. He drinks 4 or 5 days a week and some times disappears on drinking binges. I don’t know how to help him see what he’s doing to himself. He has been ordered by court in the past to alcohol treatment but sees it as a punishment forced for no good reason. I live in northeast Illinois, does anyone know of a good treatment program to help him see what he’s doing to himself?
