Alcoholism is a dangerous dependence that can lead to serious and dangerous consequences, until death. The longer a person drinks, the more difficult it is for him to overcome the habit without the help of the specialists. In 3 phases of alcoholism alreadyAlmost impossibleBack yourself. However, for expert doctors, any task is carried out. Only the patient's desire is required.
The causes of alcoholism
To get rid of addiction, it was discovered once and for all, it is necessary to understand the causes of alcoholism and work in their direction. Relatives and relatives often do not understand why a person cannot simply drink, because he has a good life, family, work, etc. Psychologists will help answer this question.
Before solving the problem of addiction, it is necessary to determine what reason the patient uses alcohol, what role the alcohol plays for him at this stage. The reasons can be divided into different groups:
- Psychological. As a rule, it is the psychological distress that does not allow the patient to launch a bad habit. This can be injury, complex, work problems and relationships, constant stress, depression. Lead to the use of large doses of alcohol. A person thus drowns emotional pain, but actually only worsens his position.
- Social. Each person only determines whether to drink alcohol or not, nobody, as a rule, forces him. However, advertising, family habits, the environment, national traditions have a great impact. If it were customary to drink in the family every evening, it is likely that it will become an alcoholic.
- Hereditary. The inheritance plays an important role. This does not mean that parents will certainly have a child who drinks, but there is a gene responsible for the development of addiction. The probability of becoming an alcoholic in the presence of burdened heredity increases.
Dependence is believed to be stronger in people with brain lesions, as well as with mental illness, since it is more difficult for them to resist habit. In the treatment, there is an effect on all these factors to reduce the possibility of recurrence.
What do you need to know?
If you decide to fight alcoholism alone, you must remember some important nuances:
- To get rid of alcohol dependence, it cannot be simple. This is a long struggle with yourself.
- Do not follow the advice of friends and relatives. They do not always help. There is no universal remedy. Each person is individual, someone launches immediately and forever and someone has to try for a long time.
- The most important thing is to achieve the danger of alcohol. While it is considered an antidepressant or harmless entertainment, it will not be possible to abandon a bad habit.
- Support for loved ones is very important. It is difficult to be alone in such a situation. Therefore, it is worth talking to family members. If it is difficult for them to understand what is going on, you can ask for help from a psychologist.
An independent path for recovery begins to create the problem. A person understands andaccepts the factwho has a problem. But even with awareness, it may not stop drinking. In addition, changes are also needed for changes, desire to change life, motivation and lack of cars -deepening. A person learns to relax without alcohol and gradually loses his physical and psychological dependence on alcohol.
How to understand what is time to launch?
Any systematic alcohol consumption is considered dependence. Alcoholism can develop slowly, for years, but during the period in which a person drinks (even in small doses), it has various disorders in the body, the cells are damaged and the internal organs suffer.
There are severalanxious signswho say it's time to bind with alcohol:
- Frequent stay. If every time after drinking alcohol hurts in the morning, the head hurts, nausea appears, you must think that it is already difficult for the body to take alcohol and the liver does not face its split.
- Lack of control. It becomes difficult for a person to check the amount of drunk. He cannot stop and continues to drink, not to understand if he drank a lot or not.
- A narrowing of the circle of acquaintances and friends. If all non -navigable people gradually retired from the circle of communication and only those you can drink with, this is a bad sign.
- Violations of the work of the internal organs. A person can try pain in the abdomen, to the burning of stomach, periodically interrupts the work of the intestine, nausea appears. Furthermore, against the background of alcoholism, tachycardia, migraine, hypertension are not rare.
- Changes in mood and behavior. The ethanol negatively affects the nervous system, therefore over time a person becomes more aggressive, irritable, touchy. His mood constantly jumps from cheerful to depressive.
These signs indicate a persistent addiction. Alcohol has already started to change a person's life and personality. You have to contact a narcologist, psychologist and undergo a care course until the health consequences have become irreversible.
How to stop drinking yourself?
The ways in the home to combat addiction can give a result, provided that the patient has enough willpower and has a strong desire to recover. Do not resort to the help of popular dubious recipes, food supplements, etc. , But there are several recommendations that help to get rid of alcohol dependence:
- You have to find a hobby. This advice seems trivial, but it works. If a person is passionate about something, he has a goal (jumping with a parachute, learn to dance, sing, etc. ), he will not have to drink from boredom. However, don't force you to play sports or as it does not cause interest. Choose a hobby that will appeal.
- Delete provocative factors. It is necessary to limit communication with friends who often drink and offer to drink, make a holiday at work, if there are problems with colleagues, a break in a relationship, if they have caused pain, etc. While in a person's life there is a source of pain, it will be more difficult to stop drinking.
- Recognize dependence. You cannot console yourself with the car -imaginary. Dependence is only the impossibility of control. A person agrees to drink, even if he thinks he can always refuse, he does not observe the prohibitions, even if he is dangerous for health (for example, taking antibiotics), he tries to heal any mental wounds. This must be recognized and recognized.
The most dangerous in home treatment is the car -accompaniment. At the first successes, a person thinks that he now has everything under control and is rewarded with a small dose of alcohol. But this is not recommended to do it, because addiction develops quickly again. Therefore, if you are not sure of your skills or have already broken several times, contact the clinic. There is no way to find alcohol in the hospital.
What is motivation and why is it important?
Regardless of whether you are treated at home or in a narcological center,Very importantThe role is played by the search for what to stop drinking. Sometimes a person finds him alone, but if he does not know how to immerse themselves, psychologists will help. They also support motivation so that the patient does not return to their previous habits.
The strongest motivation is considered:
- Family. Many have stopped drinking for the good of preserving the family. You can abandon alcohol for the good of the child not yet born or for fear of solitude, because alcoholism in most cases leads to divorces.
- Career. To build a good career, you must have a good reputation. If a person drinks constantly and is sick of postumi of a hangover, nothing important will trust him. Ethanol also negatively influences memory, intellectual skills, which do not give the possibility of promotion through the scale of career.
- Health. This is a strong, but short motivation. While the alcoholic feels bad, he is afraid of complications or death, he does not drink. But as soon as the state of health is normalized, it can return to old habits. It is necessary to realize clearly that even small doses of alcohol are dangerous, damage the body, only in this case will it be possible to get rid of addiction.
- Fatigue. Strangely, the fatigue from alcohol can be a strong enough motivation. At some point, a person is bored by drinking, it seems uninteresting to him of a holiday, he wants to change. It is difficult to change something alone, because the question is arising to move and what to do for these changes.
In addition, in the early stages of alcoholism, reputation can also serve as a motivation. In the third phase, a person no longer pays attention to him who will think of him, his only goal is to find alcohol. But before the development of Strongphysical dependenceThe fear that people (at work, in the family) recognize and will be condemned. Therefore, many hide their alcoholism.
You can find the motivation alone, but it is better to keep it with a psychologist. Don't be afraid or be shy of psychological help. Several sessions can also significantly change the course of thoughts.
