Get educated on recovery programs that work long term. Talk to people who HAVE recovered, and stay that way for years.
There’s all kinds of bs out there, spread by folks who are not addicts or alcoholics. Unless you are one of us, you don’t know.

Take a step back from your pronouncements. You don’t know anything about it.
