5 Reasons “Once An Alcoholic, Always An Alcoholic” Makes People Drink.
Even though I haven’t had a drink in five years and have developed one of the most effective sobriety programs in years, people are always telling me to join Alcoholics Anonymous again.
To “hit AA,” they say.
To that, I say, “NO!” In the thirty days I was there, four individuals died while attending AA.
Since AA didn’t help them, they’ve tried it and it didn’t work, they’ve been to rehab and relapsed, they’ve gone through detox and they’re the same person, and they don’t want to start taking medication, I work with all of them.
As a result of that truth, I built a program called Beyond Sober because of AA’s lack of emphasis on the individual.
There is a major religious component to AA’s indoctrination process that is the #1 reason why people know it won’t work for them.
It will help them develop a personality apart from their morals.
They’ll develop an entirely new character driven by terror and they’ll be embarrassed into believing they’re succeeding.
They won’t mature as a person, but they will consume more alcohol.
That’s why over 75% of people that attend AA will relapse and never return.
Because existing resources don’t cater to the individuals’ specific needs, millions of people aren’t receiving the help they require.
76,000,000 to be exact.
Programs zero in on the perceived issue at hand and ignore the problem beneath.
Even if they stop drinking, they still have problems since they aren’t a different person.
Ultimately, it’s up to them to decide what happens by deciding who they want to become.
What this indicates is that the issue is in how they interpret their life, their existence, and the process of recovery.
They are still the same person even if they manage to stop self-sabotaging.
AA is known for its parking lot drinking culture.
Before or after a meeting.
Where do they go once, they leave those rooms?
Has AA and the book had such a significant impact on their life that they feel like a new person now?
Some people, yes.
After six months, those who enter will be the same people who walked out, minus their alcohol consumption.
That’s not real success.
That’s the issue and the complaints I receive daily.
They can’t continue to act the same way and expect a different result.
Think the same way and expect a different feeling.
The only lasting answer to their alcoholism and sobriety is to develop into someone who is immune to these problems.
They’re beyond sober after that.
When they’ve reached the point where drinking alcohol is no longer an issue, it signifies they’ve done more than just get sober.
Why they won’t drink again is because of the better person they’ve become since their last drink.
It’s what allows them to enjoy life so much, thrive physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
They have no one but themselves to rely on and they trust themselves in that space.
While this topic may be discussed in some circles, is it really taught and used in a way that is hyper-focused on the individual?
Not in my experience and the expeience of million of others.
That’s why we’re releasing a book, have a podcast, and have a TV program about life beyond sobriety.
Because of this, tens of thousands of individuals have found success in life.
All around, things are looking up for them as they experience family and business expansion.
They hear about the Beyond Sober experience all the time, and there’s a good reason for it.
People are fundamentally drawn to it because of a certain quality of humanity embedded at its core.
In fact, Beyond Sober is the only program in the world powered by an ex-alcoholic.
It’s not only scientifically sound, but it was developed by someone who, having been a high-functioning alcoholic, taking 30 shots per day, who was also physiologically addicted to alcohol, was able to overcome both their physical and emotional dependence on alcohol via the use of a set of universal practices.
It’s perfect for fixing the underlying issues that other organization overlook entirely and now their’s a step-by-step process.
Getting and staying sober is easy when they truly know how their brain works.
