We have encouraged our sister to give serious consideration to taking Alcohol Awareness Classes. It seems like ever since she became of an age and she was legally allowed to drink, she's had a problem with alcohol. Now if you were to talk to her about it, she would deny with her whole entire heart that she was an alcoholic. But there is almost never a time where you see her without a drink. For my sister having a good time means that she is getting drunk. There is absolutely no good time in her opinion if it does not involve alcohol. My sister has found herself in some horrible positions, because she was inebriated and did not have the wherewithal to protect herself from some extremely dangerous situations. We now hope that by having my sister take an 12 hour alcohol and drug awareness class online, she will begin to understand the risks she is taking on her body and mind. The classes will give her the tools she needs to learn to help her stop the habit, but it's up to her to follow through. Of course, we will be there every step of the way and would even sit with her while she was going through the online course material, to discuss issues that arise.
