My dad is an alcoholic. He quit cold turkey for years and has recently started back. His drink of choice is beer. It's really scary seeing your dad drunk to the point of puking and not being able to stand or talk. And although no matter what we said to him, he had to want to stop before he could make any changes.
You have to want this--you can't do it for anyone else but yourself. It's one day at a time. And I'm heartbroken that he has started again. Also, keep in mind, alcoholics cannot just have "one" drink.
Good luck and stay strong. Have a mentor or someone you can talk to at anytime--seek therapy, don't let it ruin your life.
