What are you struggling with?

ALCOHOL....yuck

Hi Buckle, I have received a few messages from peeps who have also went to see Rhonda and were successful in giving up alcohol. However, for whatever reason, those peeps wish to remain anonymous so... There is one woman named Janice that did come out and speak of Rhonda and her handle on DS is Cats6120 http://dailystrength.org/component/option,com_comprofiler/Itemid,47/task,userProfile/user,102165/

You might want to contact her for more information regarding her experience with Rhonda Lenairs work.

I have been alcohol free since seeing Rhonda Lenair over 2 years ago and never once have I craved alcohol. NOT ONCE! In fact, it really is hard to remember why I drank like an idiot to BEgin with or how I let myself get so low. It just doesn't make sense.

Anyway, I do Hope you are able to get a grip on your alcohol problem. Life is so BEautiful without that nagging voice inside, coaxing you to drink. I finally feel FREE and I have absolutely NO FEAR of ever drinking again, now I AM IN CHARGE!

BE WELL.

Buckledown, You really have to have quite the pocket book for this "Rhonda Lenair" chick. She isn't free like AA. We have had quite the discussion/debate over this.

mschif, no offence, just the facts.

Hi, I was curious so had to google the Lenair program. I must admit I'm skeptical. I would start with AA meetings first, talk with your healthcare provider (yeah, it's tough but I found mine to be very understanding and supportive) and go from there. Look around before you spendc that much money. Best wishes.

Just googled the Rhonda program, man it's very pricy. If it doesnt work do get a refund. LOL

Is there a web site I can look at

Thanks so much for all the opinions/info...AA has not worked for me but thanks for the recommendations...Sorry to of stirred up old conversations regarding lenair...i cant find any negative info about the center anywhere which is weird...i would think if it was a quack shack there would be someone out there in cyberspace angry about blowing that much money...they do offer a guarantee so that at least makes me feel a little less skeptical...just trying to gather as much information from people who have been there or know others who have so I can make my own decision...again thanks so much as I feel everyone must find their own way on their own path...i dont know lenair will be part of mine or not....God Bless...Buckle

if i may ask what in AA hasnt worked for you if your alcoholic. The only thing I can see that wont work is if your not willing to be honest and you can stop on your own. So if you will can you explain why AA doesnt work for you.

DO the MATH!

$0- Money spent on booze since 09-05
$0- Money lost by calling in sick with a hangover since 09-05
$0- Money spent on Drunk Driving tickets since 09-05

**** prior to seeking help for alcoholism with Rhonda Lenair in 09-05 ****

$2600+ -Money spent yearly on booze
$2800+ - Money lost yearly by calling in sick with a hangover
$5000+ - Money spent and lost paying drunk driving tickets and increased insurance
$$$$$$$$$$- loss of dignity, respect, hope and spirit (no dollar value high enough to assign to these)

****

SOBRIETY- PRICELESS!

According to my math, I have saved over $10,000 since giving up alcohol 2+ years ago, and that is not even including a drunk driving ticket, which I AM sure I would have eventually got so..... I made the right decision and it was the BEST money I ever spent.

In 5 years I will have saved over $60,000 by not drinking. Alcohol is an expensive addiction both financially and spiritually. Do your own math, what is your well BEing and sanity worth to you?

BE WELL.

read the web site. its for ppl who want the work done for them. No effort on your part required. wow what a claim. I wonder how many relapses they will allow you to have to come bk to there for free before they cut you off.

mschif, like I said before... It's easier to come up with booze money when the desire to drink is upon us, but NOT easy to come up with the money in big sums like Rhonda wants.


And the guareentees aren't that hot! You can't relapse over and over and walk in, sit down, have fellowship, have a cup of coffee for free/or a buck if you care to share for support of the group, like you do at AA.

Buckledown, just responding is all we are doing...trying to help you understand what you are up against.

mschif added before too that she got the money from an inheradence, witch is fine, but not everyone has rich family members on their death bed, and not everyone has that kind of time to get a lot of money saved up. If I were to try to save my drinking money for Rhonda...well hell, guess I wouldn't even need her if I could go THAT LONG WITHOUT DRINKING!

Below I have list the Guaruntee, if you can call it that, as if you do all they say, it is very unlikly that you will need it, but if you go on a bender like most, this guaruntee will not apply.

Having said that I am a firm supporter of any method that can help a person stop drinking, and if you can afford I say pay, however pay for proffesional support in a proffesional enviroment.

I could see no talk of medical detox and that raises some concern.

You could come and stay with me for a week special price $2000 dollars, I would see that you don't drink and as so long as you followed everything I say, I would Guaruntee you could come back for free week.

Thats the big question that I see FOLLOW EVERYTHING WE SAY, those that relapse have been unlikly to do so.

However it appaers that this program has worked for some, so mock it I shall not, all I have learnt is that most that find sobriety in whatever way, normally have to back that up with additional support or the AA.

So I would say look at the medical implications, treat the Guaruntee as worthless, but if you feel that this may help you go for it.

But there alternatives a great AA rehab in Spain that cgarges about 700 a week, with the money your spending you could get a holiday to

Shop around
