Emily was a forty-nine-year-old loan officer who was tired of feeling depressed on a daily basis and tired of her excessive and hazardous drinking behavior. Simply put, she was tired of going through broken relationship after broken relationship due to her abusive drinking, she missed her old motivation for doing various things she enjoyed, she was annoyed with herself for spending her hard-earned money on a valueless habit, she hated the hangovers she went through on a recurring basis, and she was sick of feeling lackluster every morning.

As well as the visible alcohol-related health issues she was going through, in all probability the nastiest part of her drinking regimen was the untrustworthy and dishonest person she had become. In her heart of hearts she knew that she had been deceitful about her drinking activities with friends, family, and relatives and she also knew she had been less than honest with herself about the "beneficial" effects of drinking. Not only this but she rationalized guzzling three or four alcoholic beverages before going to social activities and she also rationalized needing several drinks as soon as she awakened so that she could manage the "stress" at work. In a word, Emily got to a special time in her life during which she saw that she hit the bottom of the barrel in her life and was now prepared to start the gradual and slow road to recovery.

One of the ways that Emily implemented her "plan" was by asking for a transfer at work. When her request was approved, she moved 350 miles away to a different part of the United States. If nothing else, this without a doubt made making new friends and buddies and detaching herself from her old friends much simpler. Then she phoned a doctor in her new location and made an appointment for a complete psychological and physical exam.

After meeting with the doctor and taking several lab tests, it was discovered that Emily had crossed the line from alcohol abuse to alcohol addiction and, as a result, needed alcohol rehabilitation and alcohol detoxification. At this time, her doctor made it a point to go over the different alcoholic symptoms and the usual symptoms of alcoholism. In addition to focusing a lot of attention on Emily's alcoholism symptoms, the healthcare practitioner also told Emily that her mental health assessment revealed that she was clinically depressed and in need of counseling for her medical problem.

Due to her willingness to follow through with the therapy protocol, after six weeks of inpatient treatment, Emily was ready to initiate therapy on an outpatient basis. At this time in her life, she started working at her new job and over the weeks began building up her body by drinking filtered water, taking vitamins, eating healthy foods, living an alcohol-free lifestyle, and working out.

After about eleven weeks of outpatient rehab during which time she never suffered through an alcohol relapse, Emily quit going to alcohol therapy and instead started going twice per week to local Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Going to these meetings helped Emily continue her alcohol-free way of life, they provided her with the support she sought after, and they served as a steady reminder of the negative outcomes that are linked to abusive and hazardous drinking. Compared with her life just a few short months ago, life was now pleasurable and full of possibilities that she could have never yearned for or achieved while she was involved in excessive and hazardous drinking behavior.
