The brain and nervous system have to learn safety and the window of tolerance must be increased or the brain will revert back. This is not a matter of intelligence or willpower, it's a matter of conditioning the parts of the brain involved with addiction.

Today he is over 4 months completely free of substances and in his words...
"I feel free. This program changed my brain and the way I think about alcohol, substances and addiction. I've gone on several vacations and no don't feel triggered by the things that used to trigger me."
To work with me 1-1 or join my group coaching program visit www.thestopdrinkingcoach.com - Without a brain and nervous system that feels safe or can handle tension, the brain will always revert back to alcohol.
Calm & safety is something we must induce through repetition and prediction error.
Willpower and white-knuckling does nothing to change the neural architecture established around alcohol which is why you always go back to drinking.
NeuroRepatterning is the only recovery and personal transformation system that goes upstream to the brain and nervous system where the conditioning and patterns lives and changes engine that drives the feelings & behaviors.
This is why 12 step work, therapy alone and rehab fail so many people. You're not weak, diseased or unintelligent, our understanding of addiction and recovery is rooted in a 95 year old model of understanding.
