• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Alcohol problems have a damaging impact on the health and mind of the alcoholic and his family. This book explains how alcohol affects the alcohol dependent, from the medical and psychological and social aspects. It starts with problem drinking and how we sometimes lose control.
This book is written by a psychiatrist who treated alcoholic patients and addiction sufferers for many years. The book will examine the story of alcohol, and answer some questions which come to mind, such as:
- How does alcohol affect the body and mind?
- Why do some people become alcoholics while others remain sober? Why do some have drinking problems while others maintain sensible drinking habits?
- What are the signs of alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence? When does a drinker become an alcoholic?
- What are the tests used to identify alcoholism, alcohol problems and if the alcoholic has returned to drinking?
- What treatments are available for alcoholism?
- What is the role of detoxification? What are the drugs used for withdrawal and abstinence? What is the role of rehabilitation, counselling, psychotherapy, and self-help groups like AA in overcoming alcohol problems?
- What is the outcome of those treatments?
- And how we can prevent relapse into drinking again? What is the role of the family of the alcoholic?

Medical and psychological management measures have helped many alcoholics to stop. Treatments available (drugs, psychotherapy, counselling and self-help groups like AA) are detailed here on the way to recovery.

This book will be a great help for those trying to overcome their drinking problem, for friends or family of alcoholics who wish to know what they can do to help and support them. The book will show the way out of Alcohol Dependence through available management facilities and services: medical, psychological and social.
