Alcohol abuse is a serious concern in Connecticut. You may wonder, what are the common signs and symptoms of alcohol abuse?

  • Repeatedly neglecting your responsibilities at home, work, or school because of your drinking and alcohol abuse. For example, performing poorly at work, flunking classes, neglecting your kids, or skipping out on commitments because you’re hung over.
  • Alcohol abuse also means using alcohol in situations where it’s physically dangerous, such as drinking and driving, operating machinery while intoxicated, or mixing alcohol with prescription medication against doctor’s orders.
  • Experiencing repeated legal problems in Connecticut or anywhere else due to your drinking and alcohol abuse. For example, getting arrested for driving under the influence or drunk and disorderly conduct.
  • Continuing to drink even though your alcohol abuse is causing problems in your relationships. Getting drunk with your buddies, for example, even though you know your wife will be very upset, or fighting with your family because they dislike how you act when you drink.

What kinds of Connecticut alcohol abuse treatment programs are available?  Alcoholism is a terrible and sometimes deadly health issue.  When seeking an alcohol abuse treatment program choosing the right one can be a daunting task.  It is important to know what types of alcohol abuse treatment programs are available in Connecticut.  Most alcohol abuse treatment programs will offer a variety of services but often have a form of specialty.

Types of Alcohol Abuse Treatment:

  • Connecticut Inpatient Alcohol Abuse Treatment - Inpatient alcohol abuse treatment is for those who have had serious alcohol problems for many years, have already tried to and failed to get sober or who feel that they would not have the support or strength to complete an outpatient program.
  • Connecticut Outpatient Alcohol Abuse Treatment - Outpatient alcohol abuse treatment is ideal for patients that have less severe alcohol addictions, insufficient time to participate in an inpatient program or possibly who are on the second stage of recovery after an inpatient program.
  • Connecticut Christian Alcohol Abuse Treatment - For many patients participating in a Christian or faith based program offers additional benefits and allows them to draw strength from their faith.
  • Connecticut Adolescent Alcohol Abuse Treatment - Although it is not something we would expect but teenage alcoholism is on the rise and there are some great programs created especially to help treat and deal with the problems of adolescent alcohol abuse treatment.

The first part of Connecticut alcohol abuse treatment is often alcohol detox. If you’ve been drinking alcohol for a while, you may be concerned about going through alcohol detox when you quit. Quitting drinking is not an easy thing for an alcoholic. There are many emotional, physical and habitual reasons why people drink. The fear of going through the alcohol detox process when they quit drinking prevents many people from getting started in the first place.

If your body has become heavily reliant on alcohol, you can experience all sorts of health problems when you go through alcohol detox. You may get the sakes or even lose consciousness. You may have started to feel some of these alcohol detox effects already if you have ever started to feel ill after going for too long without a drink. If you’re more of a social drinker, or occasional drinker who can go for a week easily without drinking, this probably will not be much of a problem for you. That is not to say you shouldn’t try to quit. But you will probably not experience severe alcohol detox symptoms when you do give up alcohol. On the other hand, if you drink alcohol every day, chances are you are going to experience some physical pain and discomfort when you quit. We are not mentioning this to give you an excuse to keep drinking; it is to help you prepare yourself for success in overcoming these barriers.

One you have completed your Connecticut alcohol detox you will need to enter alcohol rehab. What is alcohol rehab? Alcohol rehab in Connecticut is the process of helping individuals overcome their physical and psychological addiction to alcohol. During this process, the individual will go through several different stages of alcohol rehab. Each one of the processes is designed to treat a different component of addiction – be it physical, psychological or social aspects of the condition.

Quick Drug Facts

Vermouth is a white appetizer wine flavored with up to 40 to 50 different berries, herbs, roots, seeds, and flowers and takes about a year to make.
Many instances of drunk driving accidents could have been prevented by someone interfering. Today, with cell phones in almost every driver's pocket, reports of drunk drivers have gone up. These reports have saved an incalculable amount of lives by stopping a drunk driver before it was too late.
Almost half of Americans aged 12 or older reported being current drinkers of alcohol in the 2001 survey (48.3 percent). This translates to an estimated 109 million people. Both the rate of alcohol use and the number of drinkers increased from 2000, when 104 million, or 46.6 percent, of people aged 12 or older reported drinking in the past 30 days.
Between 1921 and 1923, about seven thousand persons were arrested for breaking prohibition laws in New York. However, only 27 of them were convicted.
