There is no medicine to kill the craving. There's antibuse, which makes you puke your brains out if you drink any alcohol or eat any food containing alcohol, but nothing kills the craving that I know of.
..go to the moors...at 4:00 a.m....wear red stockings....leave mulberry
leaves by the gang of crows you find at the rookery....( it is cold so a
little nip of the mash helps one get across the moors at that hour )...wait for sunrise...no one will come..the mulberry leaves will
dehydrate...the crows will fly away...finish your half pint in the car by

There is another question that frequently comes up related to this: "Is alcoholism a moral failing or a disease?" Regrettably the church often promotes it as a moral failing.
Sometimes people say, they drink too much because they've been treated badly/unfairly, being cheated, etc. A moral failing appeares to be everywhere nowadays.

Originally posted by kyueLook, whether it's a moral failing or an incurable disease doesn't matter in one large respect: It ain't your bag. This is their trip, not your's. You're going to get wrapped aroung the addict's axle by focusing on them and not yourself.

You need to do your thing, solve your problems, and live your life and quit focusing on whether or not someone else is doing the same or not.
Life's hard enough when your head's up your ass, it's a lot nastier when it's up someone else's.
