What else can I do to stop relapsing?

Gail Priddy (Deputy Director) gives expert video advice on: What is a relapse?; How can I stay off alcohol?; Why do people start drinking again? and more...

Remind yourself of the problem, and list the benefits of abstinence. Take a personal inventory on the pros and cons and note how your life's changed. Talk to a friend or join a group. You can consider going and seeing your GP, and having some medication to reduce cravings that will go along with counselling. Try to spend time with people who drink less, and all this will help you stop relapsing.
