The Death of an Alcoholic - codependency kills alcoholic "Robert was born with a genetic predisposition to have a fatal disease, Alcoholism. His childhood inflicted a second fatal disease on him. My friend Robert was one more of the many Alcoholics to die of Codependence." "Robert went to lots of meetings and tried real hard to work the program but on one critical point he didn't have enough humility. He did not have enough humility to accept that he was lovable." "I believe that in a hundred years historians will look back and pinpoint this milestone as the single most important event in the twentieth century. This milestone was the founding of Alcoholics Anonymous in Akron, Ohio, in June of 1935." On this page is a column by codependency therapist/Spiritual teacher about a friend who died of alcoholism. Welcome to a page of the Web Site of Robert Burney Robert Burney is a codependency therapist, Spiritual teacher, and the author of the Joyously inspirational book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls "We are not sinful, shameful human creatures who have to somehow earn Spirituality. We are Spiritual Beings having a human experience."

May 19, 1999 Web posted at: 11:13 AM EDT (1513 GMT) In this story: Relying on a "higher power" Depending on yourself Cutting back instead of quitting For women only ... RELATEDS By Theresa A. Reed (WebMD) - Beating an addiction on your own is a tall order, and one which few people can achieve for any length of time. One of your best chances for a successful, long-term recovery is to seek help from a program designed to help you cope with the physical and psychological pressures of kicking a substance dependency. And there are a number of programs to choose from. Whichever program you settle on, keep in mind that what matters most is not the cost of the program (low-cost programs have been found just as effective as expensive ones) or how much publicity it has received, but how well it works for you. Relying on a "higher power" Perhaps the best-known recovery program is Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), synonymous with the Twelve Steps of recovery and the longest existing self-help program in the United States and Canada. During its 60 years of existence, AA has become so well-respected that judges doling out punishments for crimes committed "under the influence" often mandate attendance. AA asks that its members attend meetings regularly and seek out sponsors people who have successfully stayed sober. AA is not a religious organization, but many AA members relinquish so-called control of their addiction over to a "Higher Power."

For men over 40, and women after the menopause, having one or two small drinks a day can help prevent coronary heart disease. However, it is estimated that a quarter of men and one in six women in Britain drink enough to put their health at risk. How much is too much? Government guidelines state that men should drink no more than three to four units per day and women no more than two to three units per day. However, some medical experts believe these levels are too high, and recommend no more than three units a day for men and two a day for women. Either way, you should not "save up" the units over the week and use them to binge at the weekend. Strength and units The strength of an alcoholic drink is indicated by the percentage of alcohol by volume (ABV).

"I'll be in San Francisco tonight," he said. "United Airlines Flight #946. I'm sorry it'll be so late. I don't arrive until 12:34 A.M. Will you pick me up?" She listened to his words, their cacophony a jumble of incomprehensible phrases that she didn't quite seem to understand ... couldn't understand ... given his callous, entirely unconcerned attitude over the last two years. After all, he'd all but disappeared, leaving her to pick up the financial and emotional pieces that their unhealthy coupling had wrought. "How can this be happening?", she thought. "Why could he POSSIBLY want to come out here now, after all this time?" Granted, he'd been threatening to fly out for over two years, but, his words had always been a whole lot louder than his actions. What would compel him to make good on THIS promise, as opposed to all the others? Nevertheless, she dutifully wrote down the flight details, her hand uncharacteristically shaky. After all, hope springs eternal, right? "I'll be there," she whispered, not wanting him to appear in the middle of the night on her now-peaceful doorstep. As she listened to his voice, she was surprised at the surreal, almost detached feeling that had come over her. Instantly numb, she was frightened, not wanting to get wrapped up again in all of the negative emotions that she'd tried so very hard to recover from. Even given her fear, though, she was hoping beyond hope that this long-overdue meeting would be the salve they needed to soothe the wounds they'd inflicted upon one-another over the last years of their marriage.

An alcoholic is not just the man in tatters, knocked flat on the road after a binge. Alcoholism is an age no bar, economic status/ social status no bar disease. An alcoholic is one, whose drinking causes continuing problems in any area of his life (such as family relationships, job, financial status or health) and who continues to drink in spite of these problems because he has developed a physical and psychological dependence on alcohol.

The RDSystem consists of patented amino acids and natural herbals to optimize both nature and mind. The core technology utilized in these neutraceuticals is scientifically backed by over 30 years of research from many world class scientists. Dr. Kenneth Blum, lead scientist in the discovery of the first gene for alcoholism, cocaine, and addictive behaviors, conceptualized that individuals prone to addictive behaviors were victims of brain chemical imbalances due to multi-genetic variance. He coined the term REWARD DEFICIENCY SYNDROME (RDS) to explain common genetic predisposition to addiction including alcohol, cocaine, heroin, nicotine, sugar, pathological gambling, sex, and other behavior disorders (ADHD).
