Some alcoholics just need to stop drinking, and work intensely on the reason they started abusing alcohol in the first place. We're not all the same. Our paths into alcoholism and what we have as co-occuring issues are unique, and our paths out can look very different. The only blanket thing we all need to get out is to stop drinking. I didn't change much, just removed the alcohol and threw myself into therapy to treat my anxiety disorder. That did the trick for me.

The sobriety world is full of "we all have to do "A" to achieve sobriety", those statements have always bothered me. We're all different - what i need to stay sober is going to be different from other people.
