[QUOTE="Fran, post: 383862, member: 3"] I wonder if she (willingly) would get out of the area to avoid the temptation of old patterns. Maybe stay with your sister for a few months(not sure she lives nearby) but a thought. I know with dieting and food addiction that if I go back to the previous environment, I am guaranteed to not make a good choice. Fortunately, it isn't mind altering but it's not healthy. She may be better able to keep herself in check when she returns home because every day she stays sober, she becomes stronger. It is a cunning and devastating disease. I think it requires the strength of Atlas to control oneself every. single. day. She can never let her guard down. It's hard when one is 18 or 19 to avoid parties and socializing. She needs a sober group to do parties and socializing so that the temptation is minimalized until more time has passed. [/QUOTE]
