What is the likelihood of relapse in serious alcohol dependence after rehab at 6, 12, 24 months?

Question:

Answers:
6 months - you'll still remember how difficult rehab was, so if you haven't already relapsed, it shouldn't be much of a problem.
12 months - temptation to reward yourself on an anniversary for having stuck out so long = big danger point. ONE drink can undo all the hard graft
24 months - like 12 months but not so strong a pull
5 years - as difficult as 12 months & just as dangerous
7 years - you'd be surprised just how many people relapse after 7 years and end up dying from the effects
After 7 years - not enough genuine survivors to ask

want some apple smirnoff?
