Illinois

Alcohol abuse is a constant issue for those in the Illinois addiction recovery profession. Alcohol abuse or dependence can develop very quickly or happen gradually over years. In the beginning, your drinking might not seem to be any different from the way other people drink. You may drink only with friends or at parties. It may stay like this, or you may begin to drink more. Your drinking might become a way for you to feel normal or to cope with life's problems. You might think that you can quit drinking at any time. Many people in Illinois who have alcohol abuse problems quit for days, weeks, or even months before they start drinking again. But unless you can consistently keep your drinking under control and not fall back into unhealthy patterns, you need help.

Alcohol abuse is defined as a pattern of drinking that results in one or more of the following circumstances in a twelve-month time frame:

  • Continued drinking in spite of ongoing relationship problems that are the result of drinking.
  • Drinking in situations that can result in physical injury such as operating machinery.
  • Experiencing recurring alcohol abuse related legal problems. Examples include getting arrested for damaging someone's property, receiving an Illinois DUI, or for physically hurting someone while drunk.
  • Failure to attend to important responsibilities at home, work, or school.

An intelligent way of looking at the components that make up the definition of alcohol abuse is this: when a person exhibits problems in any or all of these areas, consider this information as alcohol abuse signs. That is, the manifestation of any or all of these issues is often a red flag that the person is engaging in abusive drinking.

Often times, people find it difficult to imagine that a happy life is within reach without the use of alcohol. It is not only possible, but probable with the correct alcohol abuse treatment. There are many alcohol abuse treatment program options available. Frequently, it is a mixture of techniques specifically designed for each alcoholic that creates success. Alcohol abuse treatment in Illinois is only a phone call away. Reach out to find that you are not alone, that there are people who understand and can help. Recovery from alcoholism is possible with the help of caring professionals. You will not know what amazing help is possible until you contact a local Illinois alcohol abuse treatment program.

Research has shown that long-term alcohol abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persists long after the individual stops using. These alcohol-induced changes in brain function may have many behavioral consequences, including the compulsion abuse alcohol despite adverse consequences which is the defining characteristic of addiction

New techniques and new alcohol abuse treatment programs are constantly being developed. The road to alcohol abuse recovery may be a long one, but at the end of the road, there is hope and happiness. Break free of the depression and oppression of alcoholism by seeking help from an alcohol abuse treatment clinic. There are others who have been there, and succeeded in their goal to break the grips of alcoholism. You too, or the one you love, can be among those to succeed in creating a better life.

The first step of Illinois alcohol abuse treatment is alcohol detox. The alcohol detox process removes alcohol from the body of an alcoholic. During this process, alcohol withdrawal symptoms are monitored and controlled as much as possible. It can also refer to the recovery from any brain damage that may have occurred from the alcohol addiction. Once Illinois alcohol detox is complete, you will then enter the alcohol rehab phase of treatment.

How long will alcohol rehab last? The answer is dependent on the Illinois alcohol rehab program you choose to enter. Keep in mind, there are direct correlations to length of stay in alcohol rehab and long term sobriety. The chances of an addict achieving sobriety and maintaining a lifestyle to support sobriety greatly increase when long term inpatient care is the treatment of choice. Most addictions are not born overnight. They develop over years into patterns of behavior. These patterns must be broken. This coupled with treating the bio-physical aspects of addiction and the emotional aspects of addiction take time. Furthermore, quality alcohol rehab improves health, job performance, and quality of life while at the same time reducing family dysfunction, drug use, and involvement with the criminal justice system.

Quick Drug Facts

So convinced were they that alcohol was the cause of virtually all crime that, on the eve of Prohibition, some towns actually sold their jails.
Is there a single question that can indicate unhealthy alcohol use? An interest among scientists and clinicians involves brief screening methods for problem drinking. One possibility is a question that asks about the frequency and amount of drinking. One question that seems to have high sensitivity and specificity is a question such as the following: "When was the last time you had more than X drinks in 1 day?" with X being 5 for men and 4 for women. An answer of "in the past three months" had a sensitivity of 85-82% and a specificity of 70-77% in men and women, respectively. There were similar findings when the question was asked face-to-face or by telephone.
The alcohol content in beer followed a similar pattern, falling from 5.02 percent in 1950 to 4.58 percent in 1993 and rising again to 4.65 percent in 2002.
The body or lightness of whiskey is primarily determined by the size of the grain from which it is made; the larger the grain, the lighter the whiskey. For example, whiskey made from rye, with its small grain size, is bigger or fuller-bodied than is whiskey made from corn, with its large grain size.
