[QUOTE="DarkwingPsyduck, post: 694007, member: 20267"] No, he is too new to recovery. At this point, alcohol will only significantly raise his risk of relapse. It is a super easy trap for us to fall into. Thinking that it is only our drug of choice we must avoid, but it isn't. We are physically dependent to our drug of choice, but we are mentally and emotionally addicted to drugs, period. To an altered state of mind, more specifically. I was clean for around 1 year before I had a drink. I never had a problem with alcohol. I partied a lot, but I never drank alone, or during the day, etc. Still, the idea is to get used to sobriety. We need to learn to truly appreciate our sobriety. We cannot do that if we aren't sober. Alcohol will only lower his inhibition, and trigger his control problems. It is a very quick way to fall off a steep cliff. I would urge you to try and get him to see this. BEFORE he even tries it. He isn't ready. He doesn't have the foundation yet to do it responsibly.
