Alcoholism
Feel beat half to
death like that rabbit?
I assume alcoholism or problem drinking is affecting you in
someway. A way you really aren't happy about.
We're here to give you information and access to resources.
Following are a couple of facts about the problem.
- It affects about 1 out of 13 adults in the
United States.
- Most studies say that over 50% of adults report
having one or more close family members affected by the
problem.
- That 2/3 of Americans drink but, 10% of those
who drink, drink over 50% of the alcohol.
- That every problem drinker is expected to
significantly impact at least 4 or 5
people.
There aren't a lot of us but, we create some serious
problems.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Don't worry. I'm not here to brow beat you.
It's your life. I strongly believe you should conduct it the
way you see fit. (As long as your not hurting other
people.)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Some of the information I hope to provide.
How alcoholism has three stages and its progression.
Then there's problem, heavy, social, moderate, and a lot more
kinds of drinking.
Who knows where you're at on that sliding scale. You
probably don't. I certainly don't. There is information here
for you on that.
Even if you do have a problem, maybe it's not that bad,
Maybe its still doing more good than harm.
There is a section for self assessment. To help you get a
better idea about what's happening.
Like I said, this site is just about information and
options. I drank for years knowing I had a problem.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Some more information covered is how too much
alcohol can affect the body.
Also the:
- social
- financial
- and sometimes legal costs of being a
drunk.
Treatment methods from
inpatient to outpatient and abstinence to moderation. Even harm
reduction.(Contact information provided.)
Like I said. This site doesn't make judgements.
--------------------------------------------------------------
If you happen to be looking at this because someone else's
drinking has you concerned. I hope this site will give you some
insight into what's going on with them.
It's hard to watch someone you love destroying themselves.
Let alone put up with their crap.
------------------------------------------------------------------
There are sections on how this problem affects
society, it's cost in the work place, and how it can affect the
family and friends of the person doing it.
Even useful information for the employer of a problem
drinker.
There are all kinds of links and contact information for
free help.
----------------------------------------------------------------
For the drinker this problem is very personal. It's
wise to use whatever works best for you.
So use what you can and forget the rest.
Not everyone is in denial or going to wind up living in the
streets. You are who you are. We're here to try and help you
get to where you want to be. Not to where somebody else thinks
you should be.
