Book Reviews of Responsible Drinking: A Moderation Management Approach for Problem Drinkers

Book Review: May work for some people
Summary: 5 Stars

I have been known to binge drink mainly for social lubrication. This author defines responsible drinking as four drinks max per occasion or per day/14 per week for men and three drinks max per occasion or per day/9 per week for women.

The author also suggests a trial 30 days of abstinance to kind of clear your system of alcohol and also to test how strong your addiction is. I think this system can work but after what happened to Audrey Kishline(founder of the Moderation Management system...she killed two people in 2000 in a drunk driving collision)...I have some doubts. But I have heard of people becoming moderate drinkers and sticking with it the rest of their lives.

The book also has a self-test at the front to see where you lie on the alcohol addiction spectrum. I was a 10 which is borderline low addiction/medium addiction.
