Question by Katie: Should someone who suffers from alcoholism join the Air force?
My husband is 27 years old. The past year he has come to realize he suffers from alcoholism. He is extreamly smart and alread as a BA degree. But a BA doesnt do much these days. He wants to join the Air force to get training in a specific feild , that he coudl carry out into civilian life. He also hopes to gain his masters there. This past year has been realy hard for us because of his drinking. He has been in out patient since Agust. And 2 weeks ago he went into inpatient. He will be in inpatent till this agust. He hopes with in a few months after getting out to join the Airforce. Im concerned that he will pick drinking up again once he joins . I know people in the military drink a lot. Whne your not working your drinking. Can anyone who has been in the airforce tell me do you think it is a wise decision for him to join? Do they have support group for people who drink? Do they have seperate living quaters for people who dont want to drink? I know a lot fo the reason he drinks is…
because he doesnt have a good job. He says he wants to go and he wont drink while there because he will have a focus and a goal. Im afraid being surrounded by people who drink will make him relapse.
Do people in the airforce drink as much as other branches in the military?
Question by sharpneedleinahaystack: Alcoholism and mood swings…can it be cured alone?
My sweetheart says he needs time to be alone to conquer alcoholism. And he hopes God will bring us back together. He isn’t going to aa meetings or counseling. Just works almost 7 days a week-12 hour days running an auto business. i too am in the business. I have joined my gym again,am working out, and going to therapy. no more drinking or smoking. I Listen to “the Secret” tapes and dvd and feel so positive an no longer blame myself for his emotioal aggrivations to me. My question is…why does he not want my help or to be with him? Can he cure himself sitting at home each night alone???
God Bless You Both..

Answer by Britt All things are possible, if the person wanting it to happen believes it can be done. Alcoholism is a big problem in America, but there’s worse things people have overcome throughout history. If your “sweetheart” wants your relationship to work he’ll cut down on his hours at work, and time spent drinking, and devote more time to you and making it work. Men do not want help to get through difficult situations because they are proud or too independent to allow anyone else to help them.
Question by : alcoholism. Is it true that I threw it all away?
I stayed sober for five months, without a drop of alcohol, then i slipped and started drinking again for a few days. But now I’m going to quit again. Is it true that I threw everything I worked for away and now I have to start all over again?

Question by NorthernCA/FL: Recovery from alcoholism. I go to more meetings than he does. Is that dangerous?
I have 18 months, he has three years. He was a drug addict as well (me, too–speed, but primary alcohol). In the beginning, we talked all the time about our program, our meetings, sponsors, Higher Power, etc. It has been five months that we have been seeing each other. He is also working nights, and going to school part time. I have noticed that he goes to a meeting a week, and is pretty cynical about the “sappy” people in AA, who “hide in the program.” I am one of the sappy ones…AA saved my life.

Question by : Alcoholism during the 1990s?
I need to add more to my paragraph any ideas?
The men would waste their pay check.They spent their whole pay check at the bar.The husbands would leave for work in the morning, leaving the wives, waiting for friday so they could use the money to buy food for their family. But the paycheck never came. Instead the men would go and spend it at the bar, leaving their families at home to live on their own.
Any help, will be much appreciated, thanks!

Answer by don’t plagiarize why are you limiting this to the 1990s? do you think this only occurred then. by the 1990s people were into pot and dope, and the wife was probably smoking with the hubby, or with her own crew.
“the men earned the money, they had the right to spend it as they wanted. after all, it was their money. they were the ones who worked for eight hours a day. if the wife did not like it, she could get her own job and earn her own money. and she could also get her own house if she did not like her living arrangements.”
Question by Connie S: What is the medical cure for alcoholism…….?
Besides rehab…I mean that if you are a smoker,,,even a drug addict…all the media/medical addresses the “smoker’s ,etc solution. I grew up with an alcoholic father (my mother died when I was 12)…it’s amazing that there are “patches” for smokers and outside med clinics for various drug addicts……I need someone….a medical organization/medical to help me with my alcoholism…AA has not worked for reasons that I refuse to get in to. To me, regarding alcoholism and especially women with my disease is still a disease that no one wants to address head-on . Please any one of you share. Thx.

Answer by Birdie ☮ There’s this pill you can get (I don’t know the name) where everytime you take a drink you get really sick or throw up. Even just one sip. So it makes you not want to take a drink. If I think of the name I’ll get back to you.

Question by Joe: worried about alcoholism?
it might sound stupid because of my age(18), but i drink like 11 days out of 14, working in a pub doesn’t help but i love my work. i always wake up feeling like shit and i only feel better after i’ve had a drink. alcoholism runs in my family going back generations. just want to know whether i should be worried or not. thanks x
Best answer:
Answer by Cait I’d certainly seek some sort of help yes. You say alcohol runs in your family, so you’re already susceptible to it, and for your age that is alot of alcohol to be consuming. A good way to tell if you may have a problem is not just feeling like crap until you’ve had a drink, but more specifically going through some sort of withdraws without it. Like if you hadn’t had a drink yet you would get the shakes, and you would actually feel very ill like you had some sort of flu or cold. Try to go a few days without drinking, and if you’ve experienced any of these symptoms I would certainly seek professional help. Just because you’re 18 doesn’t mean you can’t have a problem, especially if you’re in an environment that constantly exposes you to alcohol.
