text: can alcohol addict can treat by any medicine.? are there any medicine or traditional herbs to quit from drinking.if not any other method also can. alcohol addiction is called alcoholism and i am here to tell you that there is no medicine in this world that will cure it,you are the only thing that can cure you!   just as you find reasons to use alcohol,you will eventually find reasons to not take the medicines you say you want to help you quit drinking.    when you get in enough emotional,physical and financial pain,when you have finished destroying your life and the lives of those who have loved you and have tried to help you,you will get up off your ass and do what you need to do and that is to go to alcoholics anonomous!!!!     you are doing the same thing in trying to find medicines to help you quit that you are doing in your consumption of alcohol. . .looking for an easier and softer way to deal with life.     you are living in a constant hell that you are creating.     alcohol consumption/abuse is only a bandaid for those things in your life you are looking to heal,cure or cover up.     you can leave the "bandaid" off by merely stopping the consumption of alcohol but the "wound" will continue to be there and though it might seem like it is getting better without the "bandaid",eventually it will fester up again and you will be off and running with your alcohol again but then it will be worse.     take responsibility for your alcohol consumption,pick yourself up,dust yourself off and get to an aa meeting with the same conviction you have in finding your "bandaid".     until you decide to decide to take this step,there is nothing nor anything that will treat your alcohol addiction.      in the end one way or another you will quit drinking whether you go to aa or not.   it may be because you are in jail because your addiction catches up with you or it may because your mental health  and or physical health gets so bad you will have to be hospitalized or your addiction will get bad enough you will die!!!!   don't be misled,people of all economic classes have this problem.  it is not just limited to those people living on the streets,sleeping on benches,and eating out of dumpsters.   alcoholic are a different breed of people and only those people in aa know that and know how to help you. . . aa has been there for over 60yrs and growing strong in numbers.   aa isn't for people who need it,it is for people who want it and they will be there when you are ready to want it.   until you are ready to make that committment may i offer to you one of dr.phil's sayings. . ."and how's that working for you?"   you are going to keep getting what you are getting if you keep doing what you are doing.
