Is alcoholism considered a mental illness?

Addiction, including alcoholism, is recognised as a mental illness. Once the alcohol has an impact on the brain, where behaviours change, outlooks adapt and internal functions suppress, mental vulnerabilities can aggravate, making it a difficult brain condition to treat. Through rehab, alcoholism can however be treated, in tandem with any signs of mental illness.

How do I tell my family I need to go to rehab?

It can be challenging to vocalise the need for professional support. Yet doing so will provide direct access into rehab, a highly beneficial form of professional help. Opening up, by sharing your worries and experiences will be positive, along with highlighting the opportunity of rehab. We can help you with this step if required here at Ocean Recovery to familiarise all parties of rehab.

What are the advantages of inpatient rehabilitation?

Inpatient rehabilitation is highly advantageous as it offers 24/7 specialist care, suitable environments, consistent addiction treatment sessions and access to a comprehensive recovery process. A short sacrifice will be linked to inpatient rehab, beneficial through possible recovery rates.
