Alcoholic Help

By

If you've hit bottom and realize that you're an alcoholic, help is close by. There are hundreds of treatment centers, support groups and counselors that are ready to give you a hand to become clean and sober.

If you're concerned that you're an alcoholic and need help, consider talking to your doctor. No, don't feel ashamed about it. Believe me, your doctor has heard it all and wants to help you be healthy. He can take a physical inventory and help you decide if you need to go through detox to stop drinking. If you do decide that you want to stop drinking, remember that you really do need to do it under a doctor's supervision, anyway. Depending on how heavily you've been drinking, you may find the symptoms will need a physician's care to help make you more comfortable during the seven to ten day detox period. You're unlikely to be the first person who has turned to your doctor for alcoholic help, and he will be able to prescribe medicine that will make the detox period more comfortable.

Alcoholic Help is There for You

After you have gone through detox, you will be able to get alcoholic help from several sorts of therapy. Group therapy is often useful for alcoholic help as you can share your experiences with others who have been through the same thing you have. Many people find that they are ashamed of being alcoholics and being able to talk to someone who has been through the same thing can alleviate that negative self-image and can go a long way towards rebuilding your sense of self as well as keeping you motivated on the road to recovery.
