Alcohol Addiction Effects on Health

Many parts of your body can be affected by alcohol; the short-term effects are mainly caused by how alcohol affects the brain. The more alcohol you drink, the stronger the short-term effects of alcohol will be. These include:

• Slurred speech
• Unsteadiness and lack of coordination
• Being sick, reducing the ability to react quickly to situations – for example, when driving –
• Feeling sleepy and even passing out

Over time, alcohol addiction use can lead to the development of chronic diseases and other severe problems including:

• High blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, liver disease, and digestive problems
• Cancer of the breast, mouth, throat, oesophagus, voice box, liver, colon, and rectum.
• Weakening of the immune system, increasing the chances of getting sick
• Learning and memory problems, including dementia and poor school performance
• Mental health problems, including depression and anxiety
• Social problems, including family problems, job-related problems, and unemployment
• Alcohol use disorders, or alcohol dependence

Signs and Symptoms of Alcohol Addiction

It can be challenging to spot alcohol addiction symptoms as they vary depending on factors such as the amount of alcohol they drink and the frequency in which they drink. In addition to this, alcoholics can be secretive about their addiction, and many manage to hide their addiction.

There are psychological and physical signs to look out for that may demonstrate a loved one is suffering from alcohol addiction and is in need of addiction treatment. Addiction symptoms include:

Psychological Signs of Addiction

• Mood swings
• Agitation
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Memory loss
• Lack of concentration
• Cravings for alcohol

Behavioural & Physical Signs of Addiction

• Loss of interest in previous hobbies
• Headaches
• Restlessness/insomnia
• Weight loss or weight gain
• Drinking alone regularly
• Dishonesty
• Secretive
• Withdrawal from social aspects
• Avoidance with friends and family
• Poor attendance at work

If you are concerned about a loved one who may be drinking too much, or alcohol is impacting their life, it is important you speak to an addiction specialist to get the addiction treatment help you need. At Ocean recovery, we offer a free telephone assessment to help you understand how alcohol rehab can help you.

Types of Addiction Treatment

When considering alcohol addiction treatment, it is important to establish your needs and realise what treatment will give you the best chances of recovery. Depending on the individual’s requirements, addiction rehab centres usually offer inpatient and outpatient treatment options.

Inpatient Rehab Treatment

Inpatient rehab, otherwise known as residential rehab, requires you to receive treatment at a rehab clinic. You will access benefits such as round-the-clock care, regular therapy sessions, and one-to-one counselling. Inpatient rehab treatment offers the highest level of care; thus, it is the most effective form of treatment

The stresses and distractions of day-to-day life will be eliminated, giving you more time and focus to concentrate on your addiction recovery whilst staying at a rehab clinic as part of inpatient rehab. The average duration for inpatient treatment is around 30 days; however, depending on the severity of the addiction, more extended programmes may be needed.

Outpatient Rehab Treatment

You still receive high-quality professional addiction treatment with outpatient rehab treatment as you do with inpatient treatment, only you do not live at the rehab centre. Instead, you go into the dedicated rehab centre when you require therapy and medications.

This is a cheaper rehab treatment option and is sometimes preferred as it allows the individual to continue their day-to-day routine, such as work. Although this form of treatment is not seen as effective as inpatient treatment, it can still go a long way in helping individuals overcome addiction.

If your addiction is particularly severe or you have a terrible home situation, inpatient treatment would benefit your recovery and reduce your chances of relapsing.

Stages of Alcohol Addiction Treatment

Alcohol addiction is hard to beat and likely be much more difficult if you attempt to do it yourself. However, if you are addicted to alcohol, and you feel like you need help to beat it: there is help for you. The first step in treating alcohol addiction is realising there is a problem. Once you acknowledge you have a dependency on alcohol, you can then start your recovery journey with the help of a professional.

Alcohol rehab is an alcohol treatment programme that looks to rehabilitate you from excessive alcohol intake and alcohol abuse by healing your physical and mental state through detox and therapy.

It is designed to get you fully clean through detox and how to best manage any mental health issues or physiological problems that may occur when suffering from addiction through specially designed therapy and counselling sessions.

Alcohol Detox

The detoxification phase of addiction rehab treatment is dedicated to safely removing all harmful substances from your system. It is important this is done in a controlled and safe environment as withdrawal can cause shock to the body and can be unsafe to carry out without a trained professional.

Due to the potential side effects of an alcohol withdrawal, you will first need to undergo a complete medical examination by a doctor, as there may be a requirement to use medications to help wean your body off alcohol. The time it takes to complete detox depends on how severe your addiction is.

During detox, you will start your personalised nutrition programme designed to help aid your recovery by enriching your diet with the vitamins and minerals needed to support a healthier body and mind.

Alcohol Therapies

This phase of your treatment focuses on a wide range of therapies and treatments to help you manage your addiction triggers. During the rehab stage of addiction treatment, you will learn how to cope with and manage everyday situations you may have to face once you leave the rehab centre.
