Question one No I havent
Question two
How can one deny another of there sickness-when no one denied us of ours ?
Our Big Book suggests that if one isn’t convinced to keep on until one is.
Two things can be suggested
1. Just be an example by not cross another’s instincts
2. Prayer for any alcoholics who suffers
anything else just plays God.
But come to think of it kicking another sometimes awakens them for a while

Here is one such herbal tea, but in my opinion, that path of a painless, no steps approach to getting sober, and being happy about it is just bogus.

Try it if you want to, but when your “friend“ hits the wall, remember that Alcoholics Anonymous has saved more hopeless alcoholics than all the other methods combined.

Musicman,
See if our friend has a Big Book, he may grasp it, it is better an outsider approaches him for his instincts will cross with family members

I was once asked what a cure for my drinking might look like. If I could have it any way I wanted, what would I have? I thought about it and came up with what I thought was a perfect solution.

I would be able to drink as much as I wanted to, as often as I wanted, get just as drunk as I wanted, and still have everyone love me. Oh, yea, and not go to jail.

No matter how I cut it, a solution always involved drinking, and drinking as much as I either wanted to or as much as I could. Any plan that threatened my access to alcohol was met with hostility by me. Until the obsession to drink was removed, I would not, could not see a solution that did not involve drinking.

That is the problem with a herbal remedy to drinking, it does nothing to change that odd mental twist that is the obsession to drink. When to do so will cost me everything, I would still go back to the bottle. Why would I do that?

The fix comes from the inside out, not the other way around.
