Signs You May Benefit from an Alcohol Rehabilitation Program

People turn to alcohol for many reasons. Some drink to cope with mental health issues, while others have a genetic predisposition to alcoholism. Alcohol is also a common expectation at parties or social gatherings.

Clinically-recognized alcohol addiction, called alcohol use disorder (AUD), is usually diagnosed when alcohol abuse is present over a period of time. Signs of alcohol abuse can include:

  • Excessive drinking
  • Mood swings
  • Blacking out
  • Isolating from friends and family
  • Constantly feeling hungover
  • Risky behaviors like drinking and driving
  • Making excuses to drink or drinking instead of other activities

Because alcohol is so normalized, it’s one of the most commonly abused drugs. However, this also makes it difficult for many people to recognize when they have a problem. If you’re experiencing the above symptoms, or if you recognize these symptoms in a loved one, it may be time to seek professional help.

You’ll start with more intensive treatment, including full-day participation in program activities, and gradually move into less intensive treatment as your recovery progresses.

Supporting someone with an addiction can be difficult, but encouraging them to receive the treatment they need is the best thing you can do for them.

We offer resources and guidance to help family members be a strong support system for loved ones in recovery, and we provide free consultations with clear explanations of our treatment options.

We recognize that addiction often co-occurs with mental health conditions like anxiety or depression. We’re committed to your complete well-being, so our treatment plans address both issues simultaneously. In other words, we take the time to address your holistic needs instead of enrolling you in a generic alcohol rehab program.
