Medicine, including non-traditional medicine, has not yet invented a universal method of treating alcoholism. However, scientists in one head assure that the effectiveness of medical techniques directly depends on the help of family members, loved ones and the environment of the alcoholic.
It is necessary
- - analysis of the addict's behavior during binge
- - consultation with a narcologist
Instructions
Step 1
Try to start fighting with private conversations. If an alcoholic is your close relative, parent or spouse, then this conversation should be built with a personal relationship to addiction. In no case should you induce a feeling of guilt in the addict, as this can lead to an aggravation of the problem. If you find it difficult to find words, then before the conversation, try to draw up a thesis plan for your speech. Emphasize the harm the person causes for their health, career, social status and psychological state.
Step 2
Remember the period from which the addiction to alcohol began. Try to guess what might be causing the addiction. Often, people with an unstable character and a tendency to depression begin to regularly consume alcohol under the influence of the environment. If alcoholism has not passed into a severe stage, then it is enough to limit the negative influence of the environment in order to get rid of the addiction.
Step 3
Observe the frequency with which you drink alcohol. According to the drug addiction classification, there are 4 stages of addiction. As a rule, irregular alcohol consumption and the appearance of a slight dependence are related to the 1st and 2nd stages. At the initial level, chemical dependence is poorly developed. In this case, doctors are advised to deal with psychological addiction using special techniques. In part, this function is taken over by public communities, which operate on the principle of "clubs of alcoholics anonymous". The effectiveness of this way of communication of addicts is recognized all over the world.
Step 4
Monitor how the addict behaves while drunk. If the use of alcohol is regular and accompanied by heavy drinking, then qualified drug treatment is needed.
Step 5
Contact a narcologist if you suspect that the addict has a severe stage of alcoholism. At the same time, it should be remembered that only family members and relatives can be present at the first visit.
