Opening question | You are experiencing difficulties with your alcohol consumption. I imagine it is difficult to deal with that. Could you tell me about your experience with alcohol since you started drinking, including, if applicable, your experience with health professionals for this specific problem? |

To drink less? ➢ What steps have you taken to try to change your consumption? (treatment, consultation with specialists, alternative medicines, etc.) ➢ Have you ever taken medication to stop drinking? Which medication(s) precisely? ➢ Have you looked for information concerning treatments to stop or reduce alcohol consumption? ➢ Have you heard of baclofen?
