I have eight years as of yesterday. I rarely go to meetings anymore. My brother in law has 18 years and he rarely goes to meetings anymore. They are just hard to take after a while. But to each their own. Someone famous, like LIza Minnelli, might have a harder time staying clean because of their fame and privilege.

She has a point, but I find her really insufferable.

@gamerdaddy It's not the norm to be drinking alcohol. The norm is to not be drinking alcohol. Any method that suggests an alcoholic can keep on drinking and that he will achieve sobriety by doing this is absolutely ludicrous... and can take some drugs as well, absolutely ludicrous!
No one can claim that a treatment for alcoholism works after only 3 months of sobriety. If you are an alcoholic my suggestion to you is to drop this 'treatment' before you die, get back to AA and keep it simple.

@jillb482 Naltrexone does not have the same effect as Dissulfiram.
And the Sinclair Method is a tottaly different method: you take the medicine ONLY when you drink. Amazing, huh?
I've been sober for 3 months. The treatment took me about 4 months.

@gamerdaddy I go months and I mean MONTHS without touching anything. Been keeping scores since January 1st 2003. I'll not go into details, but I'm winning easily. I know every calendar month I touched nothing. I'm famous for it in my circles. I'm the only one that uses the gym.
But yeah, I've got a real problem as I like it too much, and hangovers are hell on the mind. Really horrifying depression and anxiety attacks. Stuff stops me from eating properly too.
Good luck : )

@gamerdaddy Lisa Minelli would not know B from a bulls foot. You recommend another new drug apparently on the market.
Do you say it replaces Antabuse (Disulfiram) A drug they have been trying without any luck since 1920. Someone is always trying to make money from alkies wanting to get sober.
Fact is AA is the only thing known to work with getting alcoholics sober and that's what it was set up for by The Oxford Group of Western Canada.
May I ask you how long you have been sober @gamerdaddy?

@jillb482 I have to agree with Liza Minelli when she says Alcoholism is a disease because it changes the wiring of neurones.
And there's already a medicine to treat Alcoholism. One that works! It's called Naltrexone. But it only works associated with the Sinclair method.
If you're interested, just collect data of "Sinclair Method". I am a living proof that this method is reliable.

@Kelly14UK Yes, it is a nightmare. I know how it is by heart, because I had problems with drinking for years. One of my binges lasted three or four days!
I tried AA many times. It never worked for me...
But a medicine did! It's called Naltrexone. I took it associated with a treatment called "Sinclair Method".
I strongly recommend EVERY alcoholic to give it a try. In my case, the results were great!

This is an excerpt from a story I wrote. Jan 21/ 2012 = eight years for me.
After a while I stopped going to AA meetings. There are things about AA that I don't like a whole lot. I don't necessarily believe I have a disease. If I do I didn't catch it off a toilet seat; maybe a bar stool. I don't need my addict/alcoholic behavior to be an identity. Why give it that much power? There was a choice in there somewhere. Otherwise how did I ever stop?

Does anyone know how long she has been sober? I don't agree with her about alcoholism being a disease. She is not a Dr and besides if she stops drinking alcohol she should not have any more associated problems. It appears she has fallen into the trap of thinking God will get her sober. Simply not true. I thought she still had a slur, what about you?
It's no use praying for sobriety. Avoid the spiritualists telling her to pray for sobriety. Learn how to survive from the blog How To Survive AA
