How to recover from chronic drinking

2023-06-29 06:59:12
My dad is a chronic drunkard. He lost his leg 15 yrs before in an accident. He uses stick under his shoulders to walk. He was fine until he met with an accident recently. It caused mild brain injury and fracture in his shoulder. He recovered from both. Surgery was done only to treat his shoulder fracture and plate was put in. He was fine and after 3 months from recovery, he started drinking alcohol as before. We couldn't control him. No medications work out. He had been treated my a psychiatrist to get out from this habit for so many years but no use. He had stroke with excessive consumption of alcohol before days. Had been treated and he couldnt walk now. Again he started drinking now. When we restrict he defames every one of us, shouts and tries to get out of home. We all are tired in controlling him. How can we stop him doing this? Its evident that hes going to lose his life if he consumes further but we couldnt stop him. kindly advise.
