What You Should Know About Alcoholism - Healthboxes by Healthboxes: 2:11pm On Sep 09, 2019 |
Alcoholism, now known as alcohol use disorder, is the inability to control drinking due to both a physical and emotional dependence on alcohol. In the past, an individual with this disorder has been referred to as an "alcoholic." However, this is increasingly seen as an unhelpful and negative label. Health professionals are now saying that an individual has a disease with alcohol use (AUD). Symptoms of Alcohol Use Disorder include: • Drinking alone or in secret • Feeling an urge to drink • Not being able to limit how much alcohol is consumed • Storing alcohol in unlikely places • Drinking in order to feel good Treatment includes counseling by a health care professional. A detoxification program in a hospital or medical facility is an alternative for those in need of extra help. Medications that decrease the willingness to drink are accessible.
