[QUOTE="DarkwingPsyduck, post: 693332, member: 20267"] He still believes there are short cuts somewhere. He is still looking for the loop holes. This is the classic trait of an addict not fully committed to recovery. It is also a trait of an addict that is at least right on the edge of commitment. The only way out of this is straight through it. No shortcuts, no cop outs. He needs to truly and fully devote himself. Ask him what it could possibly hurt to try something new this time? I mean, the worst that can happen is he fails, precisely as he is failing now. His way is an almost guaranteed relapse. Maybe the other way (the right way) will also end in failure, but he owes it to himself to at least try. [/QUOTE]
