Alcoholism Recovery & Treatment

I’m a functional alcoholic so my drinking has never caused any problems with my job. I can come home from work and drink and as long as I get 7-8 hours of sleep I’m good to go the next day. I also never drink and drive so that’s not a problem. I’ve been in several relationships in the past and I like being single better. I really don’t care about dying at an early age from alcoholism either.

So what if I’m content with my alcoholism and being single?

I was just wondering how everyone felt about a couple of issues concerning the show tonight…….#1 do you think that the woman who was sent to rehab should be sent so far away from her teen son, even though she has issues with alcohol, doesn’t he still need her to be around in some capasity? maybe she could get help more locally? and dr. phil just doesn’t get at all that “maybe” she does drink because her son is driving her crazy, he is so angry, and violent, punching holes in walls and now they have to vacate their home…because of damage…dr. phil did not suggest any help for him at all…anger management? counseling? something?…. I feel so sorry for the 14 year old boy from the single mom with the three kids, where she favors her middle child..the baby still has a chance……..any input? just wondering what people thought about the show tonight………….
thanks
