Hello, Nick is suffering from a disease that has no cure, but it can be put in remission. If he works his program properly, first he needs to get himself a sponsor, someone who has a lot of years sober and who know how to work his or her program. Nick has to remember no matter how many years someone has all alcoholics and drug addicts are just one drink or just one drug away from living on the streets, go to meetings, 90 days 90 meetings, and let the slogans work for you. Last Pray, Pray, and Pray, he needs a higher power and a higher power can be anything, but go to meetings. What he gets from the program he needs to give back. Nick can be a speaker, the secretary, he can join a group. He can do it it all, it just depends on how bad he wants sobriety. Slips happen but he has to get right back up and he can't beat himself up after he has one, don't dwell on the past but just keep it in today and keep it simply. Good Luck Nick

I'm with ya, aileenm. Kicking habits is hard. I've been doing great for about 18 months....it's hard though. Good luck Nick!

I like what you had to say Loves to Cook. Your comments were spot-on. Good for you, Blues_Lover! This is a deadly chronic disease and so difficult to manage.
