My problem is owing to my brother who is an alcoholic and he does not make any attempts to overcome his habit despite of our tries and the full support extended to him. Perhaps those of you who have managed to triumph over the dreaded addiction can give me some suggestions about the ways I can motivate him back in the right track. Looking forward to your comments.
One thing about seeking one's own wellness, is realizing that another's problems with this disease are not our own.

We can't force another to seek wellness, we can only lead by example and hope they follow along.
