Alcoholism isnâ€™t a disease â€“ itâ€™s a choice. It is true that many problem drinkers have a physical dependency and psychological addiction to alcohol, but it is still a choice to drink. All drunks are not jerks riddled with flaws, defects and despicable characteristics. Many are genuinely good people who over indulge and make poor choices while under the influence. They do not necessarily need â€œthe programâ€ to break them down, force them into a belief system or rebuild them into something they are not. What they need is to have other viable alternatives, to believe in themselves and their own willpower.
