Alcohol addiction is lethal in more ways than one. It is lethal to the individual. It destroys his sanity and his physique and renders him incapable of functioning. He becomes a burden and a menace to his family and society.

The physical and mental effects of alcoholism are all too well known. Physically he will become a wreck due to impaired bodily organs. His eyes, liver, heart, kidneys and brain are all affected and damaged. His mind and behavior are also adversely affected. His behavior is erratic. He throws tantrums or regresses into depression. His flashes of temper and outbursts harm his family and children. A breakup is inevitable and happens sooner or later. On the financial side too he is destroying himself. On the one hand he will have lost his job due to alcoholism and on the other he will be spending too much on drinks and less on other necessities of life for himself and his family. He might even get into a debt trap. A stage might arrive when he will sell of his home and his assets to meet his obligations or addiction needs. This will isolate and depress him still further into drinking more and more till he destroys himself absolutely.

The only way out is rehab at an alcohol addiction treatment center. Detox will finish his urge for alcoholism. A combination of family supports, counseling and motivational experiences will then push him towards recovery and becoming a positive individual. When he learns that the world does not revolve around him and he learns to be less self-centered and more outward looking and caring, he will realize that alcoholism is not the cure but an intensification of his problems so it is best left alone. Knowledge and action that follows from such knowledge leads to a sustained recovery. Life skills which he learns from counselors at addiction treatment centers give him this vital knowledge. Their encouragement and support of family and social groups help him practice this and make it a part of his daily life.
