No Definite' Cure Has Been Discovered For Alcoholism (Jal1 or neglect were once the only "treatment" lor the alcoholic. Now we know the alcoholic can be helped. There are over twenty-one thousand alcoholics in Kansas. They need help.

This is the ninth of a series prepared by the Kansas State Commission on Alcoholism concerning the problems ol alcohol and the alcoholic.) Is there any for alcoholism? "So far as can be determined," says a phampMet published by Alcoholics Anonymous, (and most physicians and psychiatrists agree) "no one who has become an alcoholic has ever ceased to be an alcoholic. The mere fact of abstaning from alcohol for months or even years has never qualified an alcoholic to i 'normally' or socially. Or.ce the individual has crossed the borderline from heavy drinking to irresponsible alcoholic drinking, there seems to be no retreat." What, then, is the goal for a program of recovery? The answer to which most recovered alcoholics would agree is sobriety. This word means much more than abstinence. It means finding a satisfying and well balanced way of life, a new pattern of constructive living.

This kind of sobriety is not easily achieved. It will require the alcoholic's own desire to recover. His family and friends can help him to understand his. illness, that "he is powerless over alcohol." They can assist him to build and maintain this desire, but he himself must make a "decision for sobriety." The alcoholic has been called "physically, emotionally and spiritually ill." No matter how sincerely he wants to get well, seldom can he deal with ail these areas of his life alone. Rehabilitation is a long-term process which will require the help of trained and experienced persons in many or all of its pihases.

Most oUten the first phase of rehabilitation is a medical problem. The loss of body fluids during an extended "binge" may produce a critical physical condition. The functions of the liver and the endocrine glands may be impaired. Vitamins may be needed to overcome nutritional complications caused by the prolonged substitution of alcohol for other foods. These physical symptoms can often be overcome quickly, but this phase is vital to any further progress.

Sometimes even a "dec'- sion for sobriety" must be postponed until the man or woman is physically able to make any decision at all. Growing "insight" The real work of recovery begins as the alcoholic looks dearly at himself, at his behavior while he was drinking, at some of the reasons why he has come to "depend" on alcohol and also at the good and useful things about him which he can use to build a new life. Members of Alcoholics Anonymous attempt to accomplish this by what they call a "moral inventory," and by discus- cussions among themselves. For other alcoholics it has been necessary to gain a deepened "insight" through long term psychotherapy. Others have availed themselves of the help of an minister, or social worker.

No matter whose help has been utilized, however, few alcoholics have recovered without attempting to work through their personal problems. Many alcoholics, when looking into themselves, have discovered spiritual factors in their illness, and have found that a new devotion to spiritual principles could help them to personal sobriety, and ia their relationships wM oth- ers. Often they have received valuable guidance from a minister or priest. It is in relationships with others that many alcoholics have expended their most intensive efforts toward recovery. In this important area they learn to apply their emotional and spiritual insights' and translate them into action.

When he was drinking, the alcoholic had "isolated" himself, had often driven away his family, his employer, his friends. Now, if he knows what he has done to hurt others, he will try to make amends. If he has come to understand the satisfactions in giving and receiving love, he will attempt to use fchis understanding in a continuous, sometimes lifelong, process of "resocialization." Here again, he may need help. The "fellowship" of Alcoholics Anonymous helps its members to achieve this goal. Social workers can help the family to understand what the recovered alcoholic is trying to do.

Husbands, wives, parents and children themselves can help, by understanding and accepting the process of trial and error which "their alcoholic" is going through. The program of recovery from alcoholism is a total, continuous and long-range one. The next few articles in this-series will discuss more specifically how physicians; psychiatrists, clergymen, social workers, and Alcoholics Anonymous can play a pant in one or more phases of this program.
