[quote]I really don't know how else to get through to him, because he gets a one track mind when he drinks that leads him to doing things he regrets, but he knows what he's doing is stupid.[/quote] Yeah, it sucks. Been through it myself. Funny thing was I was the one screwing my life up with drink. My family and friends were the ones having to deal with it. Everyday I knew what I was doing was wrong. I used to wake up thinking "I'll change today" and "I can't cope with this anymore." And then the cycle would just continue - I would continue to drink and things would continue to get worse. The scary thing was I felt I was letting everyone down and it would just spiral out of control. It took me hitting absolute rock bottom to start to change. My advice? Do something sooner rather then later. Depending on how much he's drinking he could be completely destroying his liver - potentially life threatening. When you tell someone they're going to die if they continue what they're doing that tends to wake them up to reality. Or get their parents involved. Do they know how bad it is?
