Alcoholics Anonymous only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. This makes it easy for anyone who wants to quit drinking to join AA and start the road to recovery. But there are many people out there that cannot just walk into a room full of a alcoholics sit for an hour talk about their problems and then go home and stay sober. It is extremely difficult, those first few days of sobriety. For the people who are extremely addicted to alcohol, treatment centers are available.

Alcoholics Anonymous works. It is proven that those who work the program without half measures stay sober. But staying sober and getting sober are two very different things.

Being that the alcoholics body is addicted to the alcohol, they may have to go through detox. AA offers many things but they don't offer detox programs or one-on-one counseling, or family group.

There is a lot of damage done when a person is acting out their addiction to alcohol. This damage must be repaired. In treatment the person has the opportunity to repair the damage done to the family and their circle of friends.

Alcoholics Anonymous is not designed as a short program. People in the program continue to go to meetings in order for them to maintain their sobriety. They say that if you try as hard at getting sober as you did at getting high then you will continue to stay sober as long as you live.

Alcoholics Anonymous is the most successful organization out there helping people stay sober. It is non-profit and run by the members. The twelve steps are carefully outlined in their plethora of literature on alcoholism.

Once a person has gone through the treatment process they then begin the recovery process. This entails getting a sponsor and working the twelve steps. If the person goes full force at their recovery they will have no problem staying sober.
