Beginning Alcohol Addiction Treatment

For many people, the first step to recovering from alcohol is attending an alcohol detox program. This prepares the body to start the recovery process. After detoxing under medical supervision, you and your advisor will decide the best alcohol treatment path for you based on your life circumstances, physical and mental health, and a number of other factors.

Inpatient Alcohol Program

Achieving stable sobriety is often the result of dedicating much of your life to the treatment and learning how to prevent relapse. In-patient alcohol treatment, or our partial hospitalization program (PHP), involves staying 24/7 in a facility dedicated to helping you remain free from alcohol. This involves comprehensive behavioral therapies that teach you how to recognize the triggers that make you want to drink, how to avoid those triggers, and how to deal with them when they are unavoidable. You will receive clinical treatment, go through the 12 steps, and build skills that will help your relationships and overall wellness. In-patient treatment is for those that are not comfortable trusting themselves to avoid alcohol on their own.

Intensive Outpatient Alcohol Program

After completing an inpatient treatment program for alcoholism, it is very common for people to attend an IOP program in order to cement their newfound skills and to gradually adjust to reentering society. Here is where you will learn to remain sober while taking back on the responsibilities of real life. In this program, community housing in our residences is optional, but you will still attend individual therapy as well as group therapy and 12 step meetings.

What Are the Signs of Alcohol Addiction?

There are many symptoms and warning signs common among those struggling with alcohol abuse. If you or a loved one is experiencing any of the following, it may be necessary to seek treatment for alcohol addiction:

  • Acting irresponsibly and neglecting responsibilities
  • Becoming isolated from loved ones
  • Lacking control of how much alcohol you consume
  • Experiencing cravings for alcohol
  • Building up a tolerance for alcohol and needing more drinks to reach the desired effect
  • Building a physical dependence on alcohol
  • Suffering from withdrawal symptoms when not drinking, such as anxiety, nausea, headaches, shakiness, sweating, and vomiting.

The Pressures of Social Drinking

Alcohol is the heart of many social situations and gatherings. You may be invited to go out for some drinks to celebrate a birthday, or for a happy hour with some colleagues at the end of the workday. Maybe your friend is hosting a party to drink some beers and watch the game, or perhaps a bottle of wine is opened to go along with some conversation at the dinner table. No matter the situation, the opportunities and pressures to drink are abundant.

Due to the prevalence and easy accessibility of alcohol, it doesn’t always take much for “social drinking” to develop into an addiction. Before you know it, that addiction takes over and your life starts to spin out of control. Your career is put in jeopardy, relationships with loved ones become strained, money becomes tight, and your health starts to deteriorate. It can be difficult for you or a loved one to admit to having a problem, but overcoming this denial is the first step to overcoming your addiction.
