What's the name of that program that is kinda like AA, but they teach you how to drink in moderation instead!
Answers: You are probably thinking of Moderation Management. Google it for the links. Did you notice how you got a bunch of sermons from folks who didn't know the answer to the question you asked? Good luck.
There is none. Either you stop completely, or you don't. If you want to learn how to drink in moderation, you have do it all by yourself. And to the guy next to me, NA is Narcotics Anonymous, and that is for drugs, it doesn't include drinking.
Alcoholics cannot drink in moderation. It is an addiction and one drink leads to another.
there is no program where you learn how to drink in moderation. a drink, is a drink, is a drink. A woman that drinks two glasses of wine every single night before going to bed and is unable to sleep unless she has had her wine for the night, is an alcoholic, she may not drink in excess, in fact she does drink moderatly, however, the alcohol has messed with her basic life functions, and she is now unable to function without it. If you think you are or might be an alcoholic, please feel free to e-mail me, I can get you hooked up with some help.
There ARE actually organizations that address that: www.drinklinkmoderation.com
Also, some people say you can be hypnotized to achieve that, just like people quit smoking that way. good luck to ya!
I know what you're talking about, but I can't come up with the name. I've heard it's heavily Christian, moreso than AA. They sort of "talk you down" in a way. How much you drink, goals to cut down, and you're very accountable. Maybe talk to a church, they have resources to point you to, and it's confidential. I think it's more for the physically addicted who can't afford hospital treatments, therefore the "talking you down" so you don't go into seizures from going cold turkey.
Good luck in finding it, it worked wonders for a former college friend of mine.
there are several programs available.

If you drink, you have a disease, simple as that. ;)
