What Happens to Alcoholics?

In the story of exodus, when moses takes the hebrews out of egypt, they end up in a desert. When you leave a kingdom, no matter how tyrannical, you still fall into disorder. And so if you're trying to stop drinking, not only do you have to rid yourself of the i'f, the physiological ediction, but you have to completely learn a new way of living. It's extraordinarily difficult, and that's why so many people fail when they're trying to overcome a major addiction.
