My son loves to drink and is disobedient. Write about education.

Alcoholics Anonymous * is a group where everyone is in the same boat. Through mutual communication, mutual support and mutual encouragement, all members work together to solve their common problems and help more people get rid of alcoholism.

The desire to give up drinking is the only requirement for joining this association. You don't have to pay any membership fees or fees to join the mutual abstinence association; The association is self-sufficient by donations from its members.

Aaa is not aligned with any sect, faction, political viewpoint, organization or institution; Don't want to get involved in any disputes; I don't support or oppose any activities.

Our main purpose is to stay awake and help other alcoholics achieve this goal.

1, what is alcoholism?

Alcoholism is a disease, a worsening disease, which cannot be cured, but can be contained. The cause of this disease is due to the sensitivity of the body to alcohol and the psychological impulse to drink. No matter what kind of adverse consequences this psychological effect will bring, it cannot be overcome by one's own will alone.

Many alcoholics who can't give up drinking will blame themselves for their weak moral values, or think it's because of their unbalanced mentality. But AA's view is that alcoholism is not morally wrong, because it is a disease. At this stage, subjective will is useless, because alcoholics have lost the ability to choose freely in the face of alcohol. It is important to face up to the reality of illness, in addition, we must have the desire to recover. Experience shows that AA's plan will be effective for all alcoholics who really want to quit smoking and practice hard. For those who don't really want to give up drinking, this plan can do nothing.

2. How to judge whether you are really an alcoholic?

Only you can judge this question. Many people who joined AA have heard that he is not an alcoholic. If you want to quit drinking, you just need more perseverance, a change of environment, more rest, or more hobbies. But these people finally joined the mutual abstinence association, because deep down, they felt that they had been conquered by alcohol and were ready to get rid of their irresistible desire to drink at any cost.

There is a saying circulating in the mutual abstinence association: it is impossible to get a little addicted to alcohol. A person is either an alcoholic or not. Only people who drink know whether they have reached the point where drinking is out of control.

3. Can an alcoholic drink normally again?

After a period of abstinence, alcoholics will find it okay to drink a few cans of beer or a few glasses of light wine. However, this will lead him astray and develop into a drink that must be drunk at every meal. Before long, the drunkard will binge drinking again and relapse. If you are an alcoholic, you have only two ways to go: either make your drinking problem more and more serious and bear all kinds of disasters caused by it; Either give up drinking completely, keep a clear head and live in a new and meaningful way.

As a member of mutual abstinence association, can't you even touch beer?

Not many people get drunk after drinking a bottle or two of beer. Alcoholics, like everyone else, are well aware of this. However, alcoholics will mistakenly think that they can control themselves to drink only two or three bottles of beer a day and stop drinking. Occasionally, they can do it in a few days or weeks. So they will come to the conclusion that even if they drink it, they will be "comfortable". However, every time you drink more and more beer or wine, or you turn to hard liquor. Finally, they relapse.

I can stay awake for a long time in two binge drinking places. Do I need to turn to the Mutual Abstinence Association?

Many people who drink too much can binge for weeks, months or even years. They can put alcohol behind their heads when they are awake, and they can drink or not at this time. They don't have to overcome many psychological or emotional difficulties, and they prefer not to drink. Then, for some inexplicable reason, even without any reason, I suddenly drank very much and especially loved to drink. Work, family and other civic and social responsibilities are put aside. This carnival may last only one night, or it may last for days to weeks. Once binge drinking is over, drinkers often feel tired and regretful, and make up their minds never to let this happen again. But this situation will come again.

Intermittent alcoholics may or may not be alcoholics. But if drinking becomes uncontrollable, the interval of binge drinking becomes shorter and shorter, and if this alcoholic dares to admit that he is an alcoholic, then he, like thousands of AA members, has taken a step towards abstinence.

People say I'm not an alcoholic, but my drinking problem seems to be getting worse. Should I join the Mutual City Association?

Many members of AA didn't give up drinking in those years. Maybe relatives, friends and doctors don't think they are alcoholics. Alcoholics themselves are often unwilling to seriously face up to the reality of alcoholism addiction, which makes the problem more complicated. It is worth repeating that "am I an alcoholic?" The judgment of this problem must be made by the alcoholics themselves. Only I (that is, neither a relative nor a doctor) can come to this conclusion. But once this judgment is made, the efforts to stop drinking and keep a clear head will be 50% sure. If you wait for others to make a decision, alcoholics may suffer more danger and pain from alcoholism unnecessarily.

7. Can I quit drinking alone by reading books and materials about abstinence?

Some people stopped drinking after reading AA's classic book Alcoholics Anonymous. However, almost everyone who can do this will immediately look for other alcoholics in order to share their experiences and help them stop drinking.

The best way to make AA's abstinence program play the greatest role for individuals is to let others know, accept the contents of this abstinence program and participate in it. Alcoholics can learn more about their own problems and learn more about how to solve them by cooperating with other alcoholics in AA local chapters. They will find that the past experiences, problems and hopes of people around them are similar to their own. They can overcome loneliness, which may be an important factor that makes them greedy for what is in the cup.

8. If I join the Mutual Honesty Association, will everyone know that I am an alcoholic?

No name, no name, was and still is the basic principle of abstinence program of AA. Traditionally, AA members never reveal the inside story of their joining AA in newspapers, radio or any other mass media. No matter what happens, no one should reveal the new members at the meeting except himself.

9. I have a lot of social intercourse in the business circle. How can we talk about business without drinking?

Many industrial and commercial tycoons, famous experts and great artists did not succeed through wine.

After giving up drinking completely, people find that they can actually achieve greater success than before. In fact, abstinence from alcohol will not affect their ability to win friendship, nor will it damage their ability to influence people who may contribute to their personal career development.

This does not mean that all AA members absolutely avoid drinking with friends or business partners. If a friend wants to have a cocktail or two before lunch, AA members usually accompany him to have a non-alcoholic drink, coffee or juice. If a member of a mutual abstinence association must be invited to a cocktail party in the business circle for entertainment, he will often go without hesitation.

The success of most enterprises still depends on performance. But alcoholics may think that the key to business success is charm, wit and optimistic personality without abstinence. These qualities are undoubtedly helpful to moderate drinkers, but not to alcoholics, who often overemphasize the importance of these qualities when drinking.

10. Is the Mutual Abstinence Association effective for "defeated" people?

The history of AA shows that it will be effective for almost everyone who really wants to give up drinking, regardless of their economic or social background. Some members of AA have been in and out of low-level places, and they will be treated equally when they join AA in prisons or shelters. The problems they encounter that make their lives hopeless are the same as the basic problems encountered by any other AA member. The value of an AA member does not depend on the clothes he wears, the way he talks, the amount of money in the bank or whether he has any bank deposits. AA's only concern is whether the new members really want to give up drinking. As long as it is, it will be welcomed. Perhaps, the most tragic drinking story told by new members is nothing compared with the stories of many members with similar backgrounds and experiences.
