Have you considered therapy combined with a prescription drug such as naltrexone?

Naltrexone (ReVia, Vivitrol): Available as a daily pill or monthly injection, it lowers cravings and decreases the "buzz" or rewarding effects of alcohol, making it easier to cut back or stop drinking.

Acamprosate (Campral): This medication helps restore brain chemistry balance, reducing the mental and physical cravings for alcohol, and is typically used after a person has already stopped drinking.

You know the movie is based on a novel. The author, John O'Brien had very serious alcohol issues

Wiki

O'Brien died from suicide on April 10, 1994, two weeks after signing away the rights to adapt his novel, Leaving Las Vegas. His father and book critics said that the novel was his suicide note, while his sister, Erin O'Brien, thought the book was "the beautiful poetic way to check out: Taking that long slug of liquor and gurgling into his death with this beautiful woman."

Hey, DT, I didn't get what the Cage/Vegas/Alc. Poisoning post was about when I glanced at it in this thread.
Stay brave, stay true and and be vigilant. My thoughts are with you and I believe you'll come out on top.

I don't get this. Is DT literally trying to kill himself with alcohol like Nicolas Cage in Leaving Las Vegas? If so, some of you assholes that know him IRL need to intervene.

If he's not actually trying to do that then it's a weird joke that I don't get and I have a darker sense of humor than anyone I know.

And by "come out on top" do you mean succeed at killing himself with alcohol or by not killing himself with alcohol?
