  • @OdomtologyBooks Where are these alcoholics that you say are sober? Have they been sober for more than 10 years and are they living a problem free life now. This is the results that alcoholics get from AA. If you know of results that can better this then I am all ears. Put me in contact with these people so that I may see for myself. Alcoholics are not looking for peace or serenity.Sobriety is the purpose and all the rest of the doubletalk is simply nonsense and has no meaning

  • @OdomtologyBooks ^You are using words that do not relate to alcoholism. Are you sober and if so how long? I repeat my claim that the fellowship of AA is the only association that is known to get results with getting alcoholics sober. Facts can not be denied and this is a fact. Prove me wrong if it is not. You can not do this.AA is the only way for alcoholics to get sober.Sobriety is not only about stopping drinking it's about staying stopped and living a happy problem free life

  • @jillb482 No, AA is NOT the only worthy treatment for alcoholism. Nowadays, we have the Sinclair Method. In about 4 months it did to me what AA was never able to do in over 5 years.

    The treatment with this method went to an end, my problems with drinking are now gone. I mean, I don't have to bear any sort of burden, like attending meetings every week to listen to the same people saying the same things over and over again.

  • @jillb482 Your statement "AA is the only thing known to have results with getting alcoholics sober" is simply erroneous. The Salvation Army, as well as the Washingtonians were getting alcoholics sober long before AA was even around. Today, SMART, S.O.S., Celebrate Recovery and other support groups DO have success, like it or not, its a FACT. In my experience AA has been the most wonderful thing I could ever have imagined, and I have Peace and Serenity I never thought was possible, Namaste :) 

  • @OdomtologyBooks I beg to differ there with you. AA is the only thing known to have results with getting alcoholics sober. AA is also free and this is where the controversy comes in. There are many institutions making money from the alcoholic when he/she is drinking. Unfortunately there is also a select few who desire to make money from the alcoholic who wants to get sober. This select few unfortunately do not show results and are not required to by any health or medical body.

  • AA is not the ONLY way, nor does it claim to be!! However, my life is COMPLETELY better because of it! For anyone struggling with alcoholism, HELP is out there! KINDLE owners, check out my eMagazine ( /watch?v=wocD6tEXIeo ) Feel free to message me anyone, anytime. Namaste :)

  • @MrGrizmint "Extremely wrong" are harsh words. What facts do you have? I know that I am 100% right.Do you have a conflict of interest$ on this? In what areas do you say I am wrong? The video has some good info on the number of deaths but goes right on to say that alcohol is used as a social lubricant. This may be true for people who are not alcoholic but is certainly not a true statement for the alcoholic. My concern is for the alcoholic who is given wrong information and is for no other reason.

  • @jillb482 sorry, but youre extremely wrong. AA isnt a bad thing, but when you say its the only way and force beliefs on to people, that is bad.

  • It's no good praying for sobriety. AA is the only thing known that can get an alcoholic sober. As long as when he gets to AA he avoids the spiritualists who will tell him to pray for sobriety. Learn how to survive alcoholism by subscribing to the blog How To Survive AA

  • @bitcheznhos A very quick death.
