[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the child of an alcoholic and I can tell that[b] OP saying her kind of rehab is only going to make a difference 5-10% of the time and that she wasn’t in an AA meeting daily since leaving that she already made up her mind it wasn’t going to work and she won’t put in the effort. And yea I’m fine saying that even though OP is here looking for pity. That’s what alcoholics do. Try to get you to feel bad for them so you won’t be bad at them.[/b] I know the awful watchfulness your kid has to know you were drinking and to find it at the holidays. You say you wouldn’t wish this guilt on anyone well I wouldn’t wish what he has to deal with on anyone. You just got out and already decided you were done trying. Go back. [/quote]

Bingo. It's not going to work because OP has a million excuses. AA doesn't work. Rehab doesn't work. OP is justifying what they did by saying the somehow SMART will magically work, when 6 months from now OP will be crying "SMART has a low success rate, too!"

The whole "I suck" comment is very telling. OP just wants pity and for people to make the guilt go away, rather than owning up and finding a solution that will actually work.[/quote]
