I used to be a CHRONIC alcoholic, I mean a completely nutty, 2 casks of wine per day alcoholic, severe hallucinations, violent behaviour, self harm, many dozens of arrests, maybe 100 times being taken in to hospital by ambulance, being detained, being homeless etc.
I believe overall marijuana has been a CRITICAL factor in my complete overcoming of alcoholism from 10 years ago when I used to drink.
Addressing social issues I have, finding what is important to me in life, and finding people to love and care about have also been important.
Naltrexone loosened the hold alcohol had on me, but I was never able to totally get myself rid of it.
I guess I have a need for something to escape from things from time to time. Marijuana provides a FAR SUPERIOR replacement to alcohol.
I now NEVER think of alcohol, I would NEVER drink it again. Weed is SO MUCH BETTER.
Without a doubt marijuana is a very important factor and tool for many alcoholics to potentially help them stop drinking
