depends how bad the alcoholic is….it may need to be done in a hospital rehab setting. The withdrawl is dangerous enough to cause DEATH….I’m not kidding.

Milder detox cases can get by with a benzodiazapine type drug (valium)…

AA is usually part of the followup. Look up the DT’s…or delirium tremens

Does anyone know who the best publishers are to approach, as Authorhouse and others want money upfront and i dont have that available. Do you know who best would be interested without any initial fee’s.

See if you can find any literary agents, if you can. They would be much more able to help you. They will take a percentage of the gross, but at least you’ll have a gross to take it from.
