Depressed alcoholic told to start drinking again by GP eight days before he killed himselfA GP told a depressed alcoholic to start drinking six pints of beer a day again to ease his "cold turkey" symptoms eight days before he killed himself, an inquest heard. Anyone who knows about withdrawal from such abuse will tell you the advice was correct, but probably too late. I expect the journalist of this piece is way too ignorant to understand the matter. This Dr very obviously knows nothing about alcoholics. You don’t moderate drinking if you are truly alcoholic. You quit altogether. You find a 12 step group or a counselor. Had that man stayed off of booze for about 12 days & received support he would still be alive. See AA. Gin rules and Satan decides.
