Is moving to Cambodia really the end of the line?
Despite what the history books say, moving to Cambodia is NOT the end of the line. Moving to Vietnam is. ChatGPT answer: Whether moving to Cambodia is the "end of the line" depends entirely on your perspective and circumstances. -

Seeking Recommendations for Alcohol Rehab Centers in Thailand
Generally speaking, in my opinion and experience, all rehabs in Thailand (and all over the world) are glorified detox centers and are basically an expensive introduction to AA or NA. All of them will encourage joining AA or NA once the stay is concluded and you are "on our own". Some of them will even start a "patient" on the 12 steps and have them do some of them while in "treatment". An inexpensive way to go about getting recovery from alcoholism (if the man is indeed an alcoholic) is, under a Doctors care, get detoxed from alcohol and then follow up by attending strong AA meetings. (Strong AA meetings are ones that encourage doing the 12 step program with a sponsor who uses AA literature to guide a man through the 12 step program to recovery from alcoholism) Your friend has to be willing to do all this though. If he is not willing to ask for help or work towards recovery than there is not much that can be done. The old adage applies. You can't help someone who doesn't want help. Desperation and eagerness to get recovery is pretty much essential to recover from alcoholism. It doesn't happen, for instance, by only going to AA meetings. In good AA meetings we say meetings are helpful but meetings do not bring about recovery from alcoholism. Doing the 12 step program does. If your man is willing to go to meetings, get a sponsor and do the 12 steps with him he can recovery from alcoholism.
