Alcohol rehab process in Stoke

If you think that you might have a problem or you suspect that a loved one is struggling with alcohol addiction then it is important not to delay in taking action. Alcoholism is a disease that kills people. Not only do people die from the direct physical damage that alcohol causes (e.g. organ failure) but they also die in accidents (e.g. car crashes) or by suicide. Alcoholism just gets worse if it is left untreated – you need to take swift and decisive action if you want to minimize the risk that the patient is exposed to.

 Alcohol is a dangerous substance to detox from and it is highly recommended that you seek medical assistance from an experienced doctor. Chronic alcoholics may suffer very uncomfortable and even dangerous withdrawal symptoms such as trembling, seizures, hallucinations, and a general malaise. Getting professional help can reduce the risk associated with detox and minimize the discomfort associate with withdrawal.

What is withdrawal?

If you use a chemical for a long time your body gradually adjusts itself to be able to cope with the presence of the foreign substance. This is known as tolerance. Eventually the body adjusts itself so much that it is unable to function normally unless the chemical is present. This is known as dependence. If you are dependent on a substance and then suddenly stop using it you will suffer withdrawal symptoms as your body tries to function without the chemical that it has become so accustomed to. Doctors are often able to prescribe medication to assist you through this uncomfortable and dangerous phase.
