Topic History of: AA is still the best treatment available

dawicker I just got home from a conference on Alcoholism treatments and the keynote speakers were from very different backgrounds. One was an MD and a practicing psychiatrist, the second was from India specializing in medical research and the last was a legislative advocate trying to raise awareness about the need for treatment instead of jail.

They all gave very complex and long presentations but they agreed on one thing: Addiction/Alcoholism is ONLY overcome with God. They can act as a bridge or a facilitator and that’s what a good therapist should do but without a connection to God the addict isn’t likely to recover.

They also agreed that their statements are totally politically incorrect in our post-modern world but they could only say that after MUCH research that is their conclusion.

I was shocked, I thought sure they were going to have some new technique or medication but they didn’t. They said AA and the “big-book” are still the best resources available and represent the best chance to help patients!

I thought it was important to let people suffering from this terrible disease know.
