Specializes in General Practice

Recovery: It may be best if you do not try to help. This person needs to be in fellowship with other men and to be working the steps with a sponsor. He will only succeed if he recognizes that he is powerless to change and needs the help of his fellows. I would advise that you help him get to meetings; ask him if he is talking to his sponsor.
