[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 526547, member: 11001"] TL, I am so sorry. This is a burden that I would not wish on anyone. I am actually glad you looked into other things. I think 12 step programs are for those in recovery. Until you are truelly sold on recovery-there is little advice mostly sharing and drilling in of the steps. In his current condition, he needs more support and to learn to enjoy life again. I think they forget to laugh and love the simple things. Good programs give them all kinds of sober hobby choices and other ways to cope. I know he has learned these in the past but nothing will work until he gets to his core issues, and decides to heal. Detox would stink no matter where he was. Hopefully each day will get better. A hug to you. [/QUOTE]
