(09:40:50) (Blu) ALCOHOLISM
(09:41:04) (Cris) Go ahead Blu
(09:41:24) (Blu) by Winthrop H. Ware, M.D.
(09:41:42) (Blu) The information contained in the Edgar Cayce Health database should not be regarded as a guide to self-diagnosis or self-treatment. The cooperation of a qualified health care professional is essential if one wishes to apply the principles and techniques described in this database.
(09:42:00) (Blu) Few diseases are as ill-defined and as difficult to treat as alcoholism. Even nowadays there is still a question in the minds of some whether it is a disease or a moral issue. Edgar Cayce called it a disease, and most serious workers in the field today also call it a disease.
(09:42:22) (Blu) Noyes and Kolb say that "Alcoholism should be looked upon as a psychic illness rooted in a personality disorder or immaturity." Calling it a disease has the advantage of making it easier for an alcoholic to accept treatment.
(09:43:05) (Sandy) in my limited self observation those who prefer fruits to candy/cake are more likely to like the taste of alcohol
(09:43:09) (Blu) Basically, the disease has two phases. First, the susceptible individual is exposed to alcohol and finds that it satisfies his special needs for coping with his environment. Then, when he has imbibed enough alcohol for a sufficient period of time, he becomes addicted, much as one becomes addicted to any other drug.
(09:43:21) (kazu) I am cigeratte-holism
(09:43:35) (Blu) Some would argue that this is an oversimplification, and perhaps it is, as it leaves out all the "other types" of alcoholics, but it will do for the consideration at hand.
(09:43:38) (kazu) Nichotin-holism
(09:44:05) (Blu) If it were possible to determine ahead of time which person had the so-called "fertile soil of addiction" in his nature, then it would perhaps be possible to condition this person against alcohol until he could receive psychiatric aid in eliminating his propensity toward the disease.
(09:44:35) (Blu) Studies seem to indicate, however, that it is almost impossible to determine who will become an alcoholic. Thus, prevention from this standpoint must be considered unlikely.
(09:44:51) (Blu) In the book, Understanding the Alcoholic, by Howard Clinebell, the author says that danger arises because an individual having heard that "emotionally healthy people don’t become alcoholics" will assume that he is not a potential candidate for the illness, and consequently is overconfident. Clinebell further states that there are two points to emphasize in the prevention of alcoholism
(09:45:15) (Blu) One is that an individual doesn't have to be aware of neurosis or emotional instability to become an alcoholic, because many deep psychological problems are hidden from ourselves. In fact, the emotional damage often occurred at a very early age and he says this damage has been overlaid by many layers of a comparatively normal personality adjustment.
(09:45:46) (Blu) The people who become alcoholics rarely, if ever, are aware that they are neurotic or susceptible to the disease; thus, the way is open for alcohol to reactivate their buried problems. The second point Clinebell emphasizes is that it is impossible to predict with accuracy just which six people out of any 100 drinkers are potential alcoholics. He says that until such a prediction is possible, we should accept the warning, "You too can be an alcoholic."
(09:46:10) (Blu) Once one becomes an alcoholic, either by habit or addiction, the first thing to do is to stop the use of alcohol. The patient can do this himself, if he has the will power. This is the basis of the AA approach. Or, the patient can receive the aid of a "chemical fence" such as Antabuse (disulfiram).
(09:46:33) (Blu) Once an alcoholic ceases to drink, half of his problem is solved. The other half of the problem is the reeducation concerning problem approach and solving, as well as the eventual treatment of the underlying psychological problems
(09:46:58) (Blu) As anyone who has worked with alcoholics knows, getting them to accept a substitute for alcohol is almost impossible until the alcoholic is willing to "try anything." Usually this means that the alcoholic is so desperate that he gives up trying to manipulate people to continue his habit and surrenders to any help he can find.
(09:47:25) (Blu) Usually this means that the alcoholic is so desperate that he gives up trying to manipulate people to continue his habit and surrenders to any help he can find. This is called "hitting bottom," and the main work of the professional therapist is in "raising the bottom" of the alcoholic unwilling to seek aid and thus making his desperation come sooner.
(09:48:03) (Blu) This must often be done by withdrawing all help and aid from the alcoholic and making him suffer the consequences of his own foolishness.
(09:48:05) (Me) how would i know if i'm alcoholic
(09:48:29) (Blu) The difficulty of this task can be realized in the addicted alcoholic who considers alcohol as essential as he once considered food. Added to this problem is the fact that alcohol does possess food value - but no vitamins. An advanced alcoholic consuming nothing more than alcohol suffers concomitant avitaminosis which leads to cirrhosis of the liver, heart muscle degeneration, destruction of the higher centers of the brain, et cetera.
(09:48:39) (Sandy) Me, do you drink before 8:00AM? Do you hide it?
(09:48:53) (Me) no
(09:49:11) (Sandy) Me, then I don't think you have a problem
(09:49:38) (crystal) even if it's only one drink a day,if one must have to have it daily
(09:49:41) (WalksInSpirit) Do you spend most of your time thinkin about when you'll get the next drink? That next "buzz?"
(09:50:00) (WalksInSpirit) If no, then you shouldn't worry.
(09:50:25) (Blu) I think if it interfers with your life then you are?
(09:50:45) (Me) but when i do drink i can get carred away sometimes
(09:50:51) (Bill) interfears wqith the life of all who are around you as well
(09:51:01) (crystal) some are walking alcohloic, they fuction ok
(09:51:04) (Sandy) The AA books are excellent for spiritual growth
(09:51:11) (Me) but most times not
(09:51:23) (Sandy) Me, then you just have to know when to quit
(09:51:32) (Blu) I find a lot of people stealing alcohol, it amazes me then things they will do to get it
(09:51:53) (crystal) lol...it's just like another addictions
(09:51:58) (Blu) In Cayce's work with alcoholics, we note that he had a very shrewd assay of the alcoholic situation. In the case of a young man aged 31 (4386-1), we find a beginning alcoholic who is just at the threshold of becoming addicted. Mr. Cayce finds that the effects of alcohol are just becoming evident in his organs. This is what he recommends:
(09:52:15) (Blu) In meeting the needs of the conditions physically, we find - while there must be physical applications for the body to right itself - the greater portion must come through that of self's own will in making for the environs and for the effect that is being produced in body.
(09:52:48) (Blu) He then goes on to prescribe a "chemical fence" to be given once a week to the young man:
(09:53:02) (Blu) We would, then, find that - were these properties combined in this manner, and given at least one each week, and this as a dose, this will assist and enable the body to exercise its own prerogative in the application of self's desires. Prepare in a capsule, this:
(09:53:25) (Blu) Eucalyptol...................... 1 minim,
(09:53:36) (Blu) Rectified Oil of Turp..........1/2 minim,
(09:53:47) (Blu) Benzosol.........................1 minim,
(09:54:00) (Blu) Codeine.....................1/60th grain.
(09:54:18) (Blu) This must be given under physician's instructions or directions, one each week, until there will be found that there is ail alternation in the desires of the body as related to the physical forces, as related to the mental application of self . . . for this will produce nausea to the extent that the body when over-stimulating self, will refrain from stimulating same.
(09:54:36) (Blu) Should this become, under the physician's reactions, such as has been in cases past with the body. . they, themselves, refrain . . . or change to such an extent as to increase rather than diminish. . . take of the parings of the scrapings of the fingernail of the body, on the left little finger . . . these prepared in coffee or tea will prevent a recurrence. Not injurious, but helpful.
(09:54:55) (Me) what is a minim? please
(09:55:10) (Blu) Another time, Mr. Cayce prescribed another "chemical fence' No. 845:
(09:55:22) (Blu) minimum of what me?
(09:55:41) (Sandy) gee, perhaps the man picked his nose with his right little finger and should use those scrappings
(09:55:47) (Me) oh never mind i see'
(09:55:57) (Me) i think
(09:56:04) (Blu) Q: Is there anything I can do to help break my husband from drinking?
(09:56:17) (Blu) A: Give him this, and he'll never want to drink any more... it'll make him very sick if he does:
(09:56:24) (WalksInSpirit) MINIM: a United States liquid unit equal to 1/60 fluidram
(09:56:28) (Blu) Put into capsule:
(09:56:35) (Sandy) Blu, what is the equilvalent of the minim in pharmacutical terms?
(09:56:42) (Sandy) thanks WIS
(09:56:49) (Blu) Oil of Eucalyptus................. 1 minim
(09:57:02) (Blu) Oil of Turp...................1/2 minim
(09:57:12) (Blu) Compound Tincture of Benzoin.....1/2 minim
(09:57:14) (WalksInSpirit) You're welcome Sandy!
(09:57:25) (Blu) Give him this.
(09:57:37) (Blu) Q: How may it be given?
(09:57:50) (Blu) A: In a capsule.
(09:57:58) (Blu) Q: Just one?
(09:58:00) (Bill) its 0.062 milliliter me
(09:58:11) (Blu) A: Just one. And then he'll vomit his boots up if he takes a drink! The smell of liquor will be abhorrent even! Of course, he can overcome it - but it'll make him sick for the first year anyway.
(09:58:25) (Blu) These chemical fences of Mr. Cayce would seem to act longer than Antabuse, which has an action of only four days. The fingernail parings would seem to work as does Flagyl (metronidrazole) in dampening desire for alcohol, and perhaps in the management of a hangover taking "some of the hair of the dog that bit him."
(09:58:36) (Me) if i drink it's most'y from bordem,...a get from the same old same old
(09:58:44) (Blu) In the case of a 56-year-old male (28-1), we find a more advanced alcoholic, undoubtedly in the range of the addiction to alcohol. It is interesting to note that Mr. Cayce found the heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, and pancreas involved. This merits him a good grade in modern pathology. He is also quite correct when he says:
(09:58:59) (Blu) Digestion impaired, on account of condition created in spleen, pancreas and liver. Hence the deterioration, as it were, of the whole system and the lack of assimilation and of the digestive system functioning normal.
(09:59:13) (Blu) In this man, Mr. Cayce recommended both a "chemical fence" and a certain substitute for alcohol:
(09:59:32) (Blu) Podophyllin..............1 grain
(09:59:41) (Blu) Cascara Sagrada...............1 grain
(09:59:53) (Blu) Leptandrin...................1 grain
(10:00:05) (Blu) Licorice Compound.................1/2 grain
(10:00:17) (Blu) Make these in this quantity in each capsule, making five (5) capsules. One to be taken every other day.
(10:00:29) (Blu) Tincture Valerian.................2 ounces
(10:00:38) (Blu) Bromide of Potash................2 drams
(10:00:47) (Blu) Iodide of Potash.................10 grains with
(10:00:57) (Blu) Elixir Catisaya..................4 ounces and
(10:01:07) (Blu) Elixir Celerina.................1 ounce with
(10:01:17) (Blu) Extract of Verbena....................15 minims
(10:01:32) (Blu) The carrier for this should be sufficient Peptotol [in another place he says this is any sweet syrup] to make sixteen (16) ounces. The dose would be a teasthingyful twice each day, morning and evening. By the time the whole quantity is taken, we will find the body will be rid of much of the desire for the properties that over-balance the system.
(10:01:36) (Sandy) Verbena is such a pretty plant
(10:01:47) (Blu) Should the body take the over-stimulus while using this and become sick and nauseated, use the enema, also the stomach pump or wash to cleanse the stomach of same, though this would not be a poison in itself, unless there was certain combinations of properties taken in diet.
(09:30:38) (merri) diet or otherwise
(09:31:09) (Blu) I would like it if in the future we could do a thing on alcoholism

The fingernail parings would seem to work as does Flagyl (metronidrazole) in dampening desire for alcohol, and perhaps in the management of a hangover taking "some of the hair of the dog that bit him."
(09:58:36) (Me) if i drink it's most'y from bordem,...a get from the same old same old
(09:58:44) (Blu) In the case of a 56-year-old male (28-1), we find a more advanced alcoholic, undoubtedly in the range of the addiction to alcohol. It is interesting to note that Mr. Cayce found the heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, and pancreas involved. This merits him a good grade in modern pathology. He is also quite correct when he says:
(09:58:59) (Blu) Digestion impaired, on account of condition created in spleen, pancreas and liver. Hence the deterioration, as it were, of the whole system and the lack of assimilation and of the digestive system functioning normal.
(09:59:13) (Blu) In this man, Mr. Cayce recommended both a "chemical fence" and a certain substitute for alcohol:
(09:59:32) (Blu) Podophyllin..............1 grain
(09:59:41) (Blu) Cascara Sagrada...............1 grain
(09:59:53) (Blu) Leptandrin...................1 grain
(10:00:05) (Blu) Licorice Compound.................1/2 grain
(10:00:17) (Blu) Make these in this quantity in each capsule, making five (5) capsules. One to be taken every other day.
(10:00:29) (Blu) Tincture Valerian.................2 ounces
(10:00:38) (Blu) Bromide of Potash................2 drams
(10:00:47) (Blu) Iodide of Potash.................10 grains with
(10:00:57) (Blu) Elixir Catisaya..................4 ounces and
(10:01:07) (Blu) Elixir Celerina.................1 ounce with
(10:01:17) (Blu) Extract of Verbena....................15 minims
(10:01:32) (Blu) The carrier for this should be sufficient Peptotol [in another place he says this is any sweet syrup] to make sixteen (16) ounces. The dose would be a teasthingyful twice each day, morning and evening. By the time the whole quantity is taken, we will find the body will be rid of much of the desire for the properties that over-balance the system.
(10:01:36) (Sandy) Verbena is such a pretty plant
(10:01:47) (Blu) Should the body take the over-stimulus while using this and become sick and nauseated, use the enema, also the stomach pump or wash to cleanse the stomach of same, though this would not be a poison in itself, unless there was certain combinations of properties taken in diet.
