You do not have to have your final answer figured out before asking for help. Some people are able to reduce drinking and reduce the problems alcohol is causing. But when alcohol has led to withdrawal, blackouts, medical problems, legal issues, repeated failed attempts to cut back, or serious life consequences, stopping completely is often the safest and most effective goal.

At Shoreline, we start by helping you look honestly at your drinking, your risks, and what kind of plan is most likely to help you become safer, healthier, and more in control.
