alcohol dependence
"Long story short...At the end I was drinking over a liter of vodka per day for over 2 and 1/2 years.  I went to a traditional rehab/detox facility in which I went in to one of the worst cases of DT's the doctors/nurses/counselors they had ever seen.  I was in a coma for three days.  The program was 7 days...I was drinking again by day 9.  I realized my life, marriage, and family were falling apart.  I found a psychiatrist who utilizes Antabuse/Valium therapy.  I told him about my strong concerns based upon the seizures and coma coming off of alcohol my previous attempt and was literally scared to die in my sleep.  He reassured me over and over that it would work...he was right and I have not had a drink for almost a month. "
