A Sad Fact

October19

On a sad note, I am concerned about a friend of mine. Her son is, once again, involved in drinking alcohol to wash away his troubles. I feel so bad for my friend. She doesn’t know where to turn. Her son has been in group therapy ordered by the court. It must not have helped.

There needs to be a center that can work with this young man and meet his specific needs. He does very well for a while and then something happens in his relationship with his girlfriend and he feels the tug to turn to alcohol. His job isn’t very steady either. I think that has something to do with his problem. He needs some stability or at least learn how to cope with the things he has to deal with in life.

Cliffside Malibu alcohol rehab in Malibu, works with each client on an individual basis. They realize that one-size-fits-all programs do not work with everyone. I sure wish my friend’s son would get help there.

On their website, they talk about the fact that, “alcohol rehab, when it works, works because it recognizes and addresses the needs of individual alcoholics. Short of that, no other alcohol rehab methodology could ever get you where you need to go.” He needs a place that works with that type of understanding.

If someone you know needs help, tell them to call Cliffside Malibu at 800-501-1988 to find out how they can help.

    “A Sad Fact”

      One sad truth about life is that sometimes (most times?) you need to hit the bottom to realize your mistake. No talking, help or counseling will change your mind until you reach the total misery of your choice (he chooses to drink, no one forces the alcohol down his throat!).

      Only then can you really change yourself and start with a new decision. Maybe that’s what needs to happen to that boy.
