I went to psychotherapy for years and even uncovered some the reasons I am the way I am. Unfortunately it didn't help my alcoholism one damn bit. I drink primarily because I like to get drunk and I like it a lot.

Working the steps of AA brought more relief from me being me than years of professional heap and thousands of dollars.

Professional help is a good thing especially if the professional is in recovery because people in recovery know alcoholic BS when we start spreading it
