Is there any empirical evidence as to the efficacy of AVRT?
If I understand correctly, AVRT requires that one pick a date on which one makes a solemn promise never to drink/use again for whatever reason. I'm just wondering if anyone has ever tracked AVRT users to determine at the very least if any of them ever break the promise. It would seem that a program that makes no allowance whatsoever for relapse might not adequately address how one might begin again after relapse.
