khgmr63,
Jeeze, where did you come up with the name????
OK, my opinion is this.
NO program works without the WILLINGNESS to go to any lengths to stop drinking.
One can go to any number of meetings, therapists, rehabs etc, but in the end, one has to just suck up all the discomfort and yuckiness of quitting.
Once we have quit, we may or may not be content.
If we are not content, we must dig deeper and make changes.
To lifestyle, acquaintances, family dynamics, work, personality, habits, outlook etc.
Just forgot to point out, that you seem to have the willingness and strong desire to quit. A darn good start!
