A friend has turned alcoholic. I was in denial for the past few years. I know he still is. It is causing a lot of trouble to his younger brother.His parents are yet to find out about it. I know that my friend has to come clean to his parents about his brother and get it all in the open so that they could deal with it.
Problem is how to deal with it. Can someone mention any good therapist in bangalore who deals with such a problem? LAso are there any good books that you may have run into, that could eb sueful to my frined. he is trying to find ways to deal the problem with himself before he cuases anquish and trouble to the aged parents. My friend's brother doesn't have a job. He has very low self confidence and is extremely self conscious. He is very soft hearted and has failed in many jobs. There is also a hint of failure in lovelife but is not confirmed. We dont know what the truth is about the lovelife as he never shares. All this trouble is huge on anyone's mind and I can understand that why the person has turned alcoholic. But His brother, his friends and his parents including other relatives all want to help him with the job and a good life. He is 35 but refused to marry because he claims he wont be able to support his wife(if he had one) with his parent's money. Also it is an ego issue obviously.
My friend's brother has been diagnoesed with a liver disease which is at a starting stage. But the drinking is still hapenening although once every few days. He doesn't take the medication seriously.
Do any of you guys provide any quality input to this problem? Any leads towards any professional help?
