Alcoholism– What Should I Know About It?
Abstract: adolescent drug rehab center
Tag: Adolescent Drug Rehab Center
What is alcoholism?
Alcoholism is a disease that affects the part of the brain that
controls your feelings, the way you make decisions, and the way
you act. People with alcoholism cannot control how much they
drink. What causes alcoholism?
Nobody knows what causes alcoholism. People with parents who
have alcoholism have a greater chance of getting the disease.
Alcoholism may be related to the things we learn when we are
growing up. Alcoholism is not caused by a lack of will power or
moral values.
How can I tell if I have alcoholism?
It is not easy to tell if you have alcoholism. You might drink
socially at first, but over time the drinking can get out of
control. Your family, friends, or doctor might notice it before
you do. You might drink to help yourself go to sleep or deal
with stress and anxiety. Over time, you need to drink fresh to
feel the same way. As the drinking gets worse, you may have some
of the following:
* Stomach ulcers
* Liver disease
* Mood problems, such as depression and irritability
* Trouble sleeping
* Problems with family and friends
* Problems at work.
You might have alcoholism if you have tried to quit drinking but
were not able to stop. Alcoholism can make you do things you
wouldn’t do if you were sober. Some of these things can hurt
other people, even the people you love.
Where can I get help for alcoholism?
Your doctor can help you find the right treatment program. You
also can check with your health insurance company. Some
insurance plans cover alcohol treatment only at certain places.
If you have been a heavy drinker for a long time, do not stop
drinking suddenly. This can lead to serious withdrawal symptoms.
What is withdrawal?
When you stop drinking, your body might find it hard with no
alcohol. You might have some uncomfortable feelings. That is
called withdrawal. You might feel anxious and confused or have
trouble sleeping. If you get “the shakes” when you don’t drink,
or if you feel like you need to have a drink early in the day,
you might need to take medicine when you stop drinking to help
with the withdrawal. This is called detoxification
(say:dee-tox-uh-fuh-kay-shun, or “detox,” for short).
How can my doctor tell if I need detoxification?
Your doctor will ask you questions to see if you need to take
medicine to stop drinking. It is important to be honest with
your doctor about how much you drink and the kinds of drugs you
take.
Can detoxification be done at home?
Yes, but only with close supervision from your doctor. You will
need to have another person at home to help you take your
medicine. If you have serious withdrawal symptoms or other
medical problems, you might have to go to a hospital for
detoxification. Tell your doctor if you had a seizure or got
delirious when you tried to stop drinking before.
What happens after detoxification?
Detoxification is not enough to treat alcoholism. You should
have counseling before and after detoxification. Counseling will
help keep you from drinking again.
What about Alcoholics Anonymous?
Alcoholics Anonymous, or “A.A.,” is a free support group for
people with alcoholism. The people in A.A. help each other stay
sober. Most communities have A.A. meetings, and most alcohol
treatment programs tell their patients to go to these meetings.
Where can I get further information?
Your doctor
This information provides a general overview and may not apply
to everyone. Talk to your family doctor to find out if this
information applies to you and to get major information on this
subject.

Untapped Benefits Of Gambling
Abstract: drug rehab houston

The Untapped Benefits of Gambling
Some people cringe at the thought of being labeled as a gambler
since the stigma would forever hound them. People have different
reasons as to why they gamble. Some gamble to forget their
problems, others for fun, or to while away the time, those who
play seriously and those who are addicted to it.
But all is not negative when it comes to gambling as there are
untapped benefits of gambling which cannot be seen within the
walls of the casino, or the race track, or in the bingo social
hall.
Employment
In Las Vegas, a whopping 60 percent of the employment ratio is
attributed to the presence of casinos. Imagine what would happen
to Las Vegas if all the casinos suddenly stopped operating.
Entertainment
Self-discipline is the key. Gambling is for entertainment, as it
was intended to be. Others just couldn’t handle a loss and
always kept right on thinking that the next card would be the
one to salvage all that has been lost. But it never does. And
these types of gamblers only comprise one-fourth of the gambling
population who cannot gamble responsibly.
Imagine the other 75 percent who responsibly gamble. These are
the people who find the entertainment value of gambling and they
are never blinded by the illusion that hitting it big time just
once is the key to financial freedom.
It is sad that only a small percentage of the gambling
population gets the bad rap of how gambling can be so
destructive. Families, friends, properties, jobs, crimes and
deception permeate the destruction brought about by gambling.
Charity Work
Winnings from gambling activities have contributed in providing
the needed financial support of worthy causes. They use gambling
activities such as bingos or lotteries with a percentage of the
jackpot winnings tied with charity institutions.
Some celebrities even show their prowess in card games like
poker to provide entertainment for the viewers and winnings for
the charity institution they represent.
Health benefit
Studies have been found that retirees 65 years old and above who
gamble have less health issues such as depression, alcoholism
and bankruptcy as they find gambling to be therapeutic as it
exercises their mind and keep them alert.
The study was not conclusive, however, because retiree gamblers
are the recreational gamblers who find the entertainment value
of gambling. They are healthier because they are healthy to
begin with and not because they gamble.
In the end, it is not the gambling act itself that makes it
beneficial or harmful to the individual. It is the decision of
the individual if gambling would rule him or he would rule his
gambling habit.
