Why Residential Treatment in a Medical Rehab the Best Option for Alcohol Addiction?
Alcoholism and Isolation
At Horizon Rehab Center, we understand the destructive power of alcoholism and the ways in which it can lead to feelings of isolation and loneliness. Alcoholism is a disease that can consume an individual's life, causing them to withdraw from social activities and relationships. This isolation can worsen the symptoms of addiction and make it even harder to seek help and recover.
One of the most damaging aspects of alcoholism is the way it can cause people to disconnect from their loved ones. As the disease progresses, an individual may prioritise their addiction over their relationships, leading to conflicts and strained connections with friends and family. This isolation can be particularly harmful to those who do not have a strong support system, as it can make them feel even more alone and vulnerable.
The importance of building a supportive community of peers and professionals in the recovery process cannot be understated. As such, We offer a range of group therapy and support groups that allow individuals to connect with others who are experiencing similar struggles. By fostering a sense of belonging and connection, we aim to help our clients break free from the isolation of alcoholism and build strong, healthy relationships.
Alcoholism and Denial
<Denial is a common defense mechanism that allows individuals to avoid acknowledging the negative consequences of their alcohol use. For those struggling with addiction, denial can make it difficult to recognize the need for treatment and seek help.
One of the most frustrating aspects of alcoholism is the way it can cause people to downplay or minimize their drinking habits. An individual in denial may insist that their alcohol use is not a problem or that they can quit anytime they want. They may make excuses for their drinking, such as claiming that it helps them relax or cope with stress.
At Horizon Rehab, we recognize the importance of helping our clients move past denial and confront the reality of their addiction. Through individual counselling and group therapy, we aim to help clients understand the ways in which alcohol has impacted their lives and the importance of seeking treatment.
Alcohol Abuse and Dependence
Alcoholism, also known as alcohol dependence, is a chronic medical condition characterised by the inability to control one's alcohol consumption. The physical dependence on alcohol occurs when the body becomes accustomed to the presence of alcohol and experiences withdrawal symptoms when it is absent.
When an individual consumes alcohol regularly, their body begins to adapt to the presence of the substance. This can lead to physical dependence, as the body becomes accustomed to functioning with alcohol and experiences withdrawal symptoms when it is not present. These withdrawal symptoms can range from mild to severe and can include extreme anxiety, panic attacks, and shaking. In more extreme cases people can also experience seizures and delirium tremens.
Medical intervention for alcohol dependence for essential for those who regularly drink excessive amounts of alcohol, as attempting to quit "cold turkey" can be dangerous and potentially life-threatening.
