Return to The Inside Story

<h2>The Inside Story</h2>by EdPhilipsMost people tend to think that being an alcoholic and having an alcohol abuse problem is the same thing when they aren't. A person suffering from an alcohol abuse problem is typically thought of as a "functioning alcoholic" and they are inclined to drink in excess and many times suffer from some of the same health conditions that are usually related to those with alcoholism. Alcohol abusers often operate under the radar as they appear normal in a crowd. They are clever enough to set their own alcohol intake limits, but their consumption is still much higher than that of what an average social drinker would consume. On the other hand, alcoholics cannot put a limit on their alcohol consumption due to their addiction to alcohol manifesting itself both mentally and physically. The cycle escalates as the physical and mental addiction needs the alcohol and the alcohol further affects the physical and mental state. Alcoholics often need to drink throughout the day and do so as they can no longer control their need to drink. While both cases call for help, the methods of assistance differ for each. Alcohol abusers will need more psychological and emotional care. An alcoholic needs the same support in these areas with the addition of support for the physical withdrawal they will more than likely experience when quitting drinking. Recent studies carried out in universities seem to suggest that the increase in domestic violent acts could be related to alcoholism, although others have stated that the relation with alcohol may be misleading to the facts. What we really can't ascertain is whether these domestic violence occurrences are the result of alcoholism or does the domestic violence causes the abuse of alcohol? Whatever the case may be, the fundamental fact is that alcohol is present and domestic violence is being experienced in too many family homes and many times on a daily basis. Any person in the situation can be the alcoholic or all involved can be addicted. Alcoholism can create blindness in that it masks the truth of the situation and the problems alcohol creates. The first step to overcoming these problems is to admit they are there. Sit down and set goals and rules for a better future but limit the focus on the alcohol itself in the beginning as it can lead to a violent end. If you recognize these problems in yourself or your family or even in someone else you might know, take action to beak the cycles. There are many organizations and associations that are ready to give the crucial support necessary to anyone who is ready to come to terms with their condition.
