When is alcohol a problem?
Of an estimated 586,780 dependent drinkers only 18% are receiving treatment
Alcohol is consumed in a variety of situations and for varied reasons, this can be to socialise, unwind at the end of the day or having a few drinks at lunch. This can gravitate to what is described as alcohol use disorder without being aware that it has become problematic. Alcohol Use Disorder is a condition in which a person drinks alcohol, even though it has a negative impact on their life. This could be from mild to severe and could start as drinking more to maintain the same effect, noticing that you are looking forward to a drink prior to actually consuming, needing a drink before socialising, drinking noticeably more than others, behaving in ways which sober, you wouldn’t to physically needing a drink of alcohol to steady yourself the next day.
