I Also cannot add to the detail that others have provided ..However , I just want to State that I feel for you and certainly understand that your story is an honest one ... I can only imagine your pain .

Wishing you all the very best with getting your daughter back , I think the " do not return " advice sounds pretty good to me .

I guess It really does depend on the individual , but I was someone who could always do this ( completely Sober in a Bar ) even when I was a pretty heavy Binge drinker / Alcholic / Problem drinker ( dependent on definition ) ... Despite enjoying the Bar Scene ( Not to find women ) , I really always found it quite simple .

Matter , I always do say to Aussie Guys who I think are going to go for Bar girls ..to go out early , keep a clear head and Leave early , therefore getting their Money's worth ... The Few guys who have followed my suggestion , have Thanked me many times over ... Now from there , If they wish to stay with the same girl or " Play the field " ..using the same judgement , they have a much much better time .

However , like all the posters , I can see the Danger and the issues , especially if you are drinking Whiskey , as I used to . 15 beers , doesn't even touch the Sides !!! .

And I guess , this system aint so good for the Bar owner ..but much better for the individuals Health and well being .

Greetings all , Ive been Sober now for just 4 months , but already I would like to write about my benefits ..Compared to some , I didn't have a problem ..HOWEVER , I knew that I had a problem , because the initial thought to stop , made me extremely fearful , as well as the actual addiction withdrawal . I read that the definition of an alcholic was 37 standard drinks her week , well when I found out this I quickly calculated and I think week in ..week out I was around 55 . My first thought ..How can I be in Thailand Sober all the time ? Then I asked myself ..Why did you want to go to Thailand ? For Drink ? , the answer was of course NO .<BR><BR> The first Joy I have is the feeling a freedom ... I never really drove while drinking , So I can drive ..I can go where I like . Planning , late invites to parties , and Its been just wonderful to be able to just drink Narm . My thought process ..I make a statement , I say to myself " I really meant that " ..Im completely Sober , my thoughts , I believe far deeper , my spirituality ..far more intense , My relationships ( all ) , just much easier .. with everyone really ..my nightly 5 k walk ( dont have to talk myself into it ) .<BR><BR> Attitude ..Freedom and Fitness are my keys words .<BR><BR> I know its only been a short time , I know I can easily slip back to the Merrygoround , but as each day passes I grow stronger ... Also I no longer see " Benefits " on the drinking side , I only see problems and a terrible addiction .... I really have enjoyed my journey so far ..Please wish me luck and strength .
