    Once addicted to anything...always addicted..even when not drinking or using...still an addict..they just call it recovering addict when the person isn't doing those things.

    If you're are truly addicted , ( as in alcoholic ) you will never be able to drink alcohol again successfully..
    It's a fine line between being a heavy drinker and being alcoholic.. I'm not an expert on alcoholism by a long shot but after being in AA , CA and NA for 22 years I have heard a true alcoholic will not be able to control his / her drinking after one drink.Yes , the other guys absolutely right , once you cross that line into alcoholism theirs no turning back. You will never be fully recovered ,but you can stop drinking with the help of AA , CA , and NA . They are proven to work .

    Many alcoholics are not heavy drinkers. The 2 do not go hand in hand.

    No. Some alcoholics were able to eliminate the substance from their system forever as long as they go to an outpatient alcohol treatment. To know more about this, go to abusetreatmentcenters.net

    Addicted? You can't get addicted. Starting over isn't an addiction.
