Today’s story is perfect inspiration for people who think its too late to change their ways. Who have lost hope in their ability of changing life for better.

Death From Alcohol Abuse ? not a Pretty Way to Die

I have watched people I love struggle with alcohol abuse. The help offered seemed so useless. Go to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and get a grip seemed to be the only advice. I attended meetings and as a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist did more than I ever thought possible to help.

So many doctors and health professionals think AA is the single treatment option. It is definitely not the only way. It is also not a very effective way to treat alcohol abuse. AA’s success rate is approximately three percent. (Brown, Treatment Doesn’t Work, 1991).

The premise of Alcoholics Anonymous involves blaming the victim and relinquishing power. It also has a spiritual component that many people dislike. It is repetitive, the meetings can become addictive and guilt inducing.

Intuition That Doctors can Benefit From

Before I tell you about how I almost lost my son as a result of my concerns being ignored by a doctor, let me tell you why doctors should listen to mothers.

Mothers spend much more time with their children, and so are better observers of symptoms (which the doctors rely on to make their prognosis) that their children display. Doctors go by what the mother of a child tells them, for them to decide under what ailment those symptoms fall. If a mother walks into a doctor’s office and says “My child is sick, please tell me what is wrong with her,” the doctor will throw the question right back to her to find out what she has observed like vomiting, fever, temperature, mood change etc. Without the mother’s help, the doctors hands are tied!

Question by Lost Girl: My boyfriend goes from being a totally normal, caring person, to a really mean defensive jerk when he drinks?
Ok, so my boyfriend of 4 years (he’s 32) is one of those super nice guys by day, but (sometimes) when he’s had a few drinks…he really gets defensive and mean. It’s gotten worse over the past 1 year or so, or maybe my level of patience has diminished.

For example, we will meet for a dinner somewhere between our houses, and I’m guessing he makes a drink “for the road” before he meets me. This “roadie” will probably consist of 2-3 shots of vodka with some mixer. We’ll have 1 or 2 (usually if I have 1 or 2, he has 3 or 4) drinks at dinner, etc. Then, we’ll talk later in the evening (after we’ve both gone to our homes) and he’s slurring. I’ll ask, “hey, are you ok? How are you slurring? Are you drunk?” Come to find out he’s stopped for a “roadie” beer or 2 on the way home. Mind you, he’s made a whopping 4-5 mile drive home. He gets WAY upset/defensive with me and we usually end up in some sort of arguement over the phone.
