Symptoms and Warning Signs

SIGNS OF ALCOHOL ABUSE

Alcohol abuse is defined as any use that negatively impacts the user. This encompasses health effects, such as bad hangovers and alcohol-induced accidents, as well as social effects, such as doing or saying regrettable things while intoxicated.
Binge drinking and alcohol abuse can start in the teenage years or even earlier, though adults and the elderly may pick up the habit too.
Alcoholism often begins in a person’s early 20s and is characterized by frequent heavy drinking. This behavior leads to an increased tolerance to alcohol and eventually presents social and health problems. Recognizing when someone you care about is abusing alcohol can help you determine if they need help.

Some of the signs of alcohol abuse include:

Slurred speech
Bloodshot eyes
Lack of coordination
Rambling or repetitive statements
Difficulty standing up or walking
Disorientation
Agitation or anxiety
Glassy or blank stares

THE DANGERS OF ALCOHOL ABUSE

Many people don’t recognize the damaging effects of alcohol because it is so prevalent in society. Whether it’s having one too many drinks at happy hour after work one night or developing a pattern of frequent binge drinking, the effects of alcohol can be seen across the country in many forms.
Long-term abuse of alcohol takes a serious toll on the brain and body, as every organ is affected by it. Certain organs, such as the liver and the brain, are affected more than others.

Although many people drink to feel buzzed, the ramifications of alcohol abuse can persist long past the initial period of intoxication. Short-term side effects of alcohol abuse can include:

Trouble breathing
Impaired judgment
Headaches
Blackouts
Nausea
Distorted vision and hearing

Long-term effects of alcohol abuse are more serious and can include irreversible damage that could lead to death. Some of the common long-term effects of alcoholism include:

Depression
Brain damage
Psoriasis
Anxiety disorders
Neurological impairment
Cirrhosis of the liver
Chronic pancreatitis
Hand tremors
Compromised immune system

Studies have shown that those who use alcohol as a teen have up to five times the risk of developing a dependence on alcohol compared to those who began drinking at 21. Teens who abuse alcohol also have significant issues with normal brain development.

I personally visited Nishan Rehab to meet one of my relatives who was admitted there for his drug dependence. He was into many rehabs before enrolling himself at Nishan. He remained there for 4 months. This is first time he is in recovery for last one year and I thought to give reviews. No doubt, Nishan Rehab is best addiction treatment facility and changing lives and changing perspective of life. Be confident while admitting your loved one there. Best professional team, respect for all patients, comfortable rooms and good quality food.
