Alcohol Addiction
LUXURY ALCOHOL ADDICTION TREATMENT IN BALI
Alcohol addiction or ́alcoholism´ can be difficult to identify because unlike illicit drugs, alcohol is widely accepted in many cultures. Many people are not sure if they are ́alcoholics ́ or not, which can prevent them from accessing the support they need to build a healthier, more meaningful life.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM–5) suggests that a person has an alcohol use disorder if they exhibit two or more of the following symptoms:
- Alcohol is often taken in larger amounts or over a longer period than was intended.
- There is a persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down or control alcohol use.
- A great deal of time is spent in activities necessary to obtain alcohol, use alcohol, or recover from its effects.
- Craving, or a strong desire or urge to use alcohol.
- Recurrent alcohol use resulting in a failure to fulfill major role obligations at work, school, or home.
- Continued alcohol use despite having persistent or recurrent social or interpersonal problems caused or exacerbated by the effects of alcohol.
- Important social, occupational, or recreational activities are given up or reduced because of alcohol use.
- Recurrent alcohol use in situations in which it is physically hazardous.
- Alcohol use is continued despite knowledge of having a persistent or recurrent physical or psychological problem that is likely to have been caused or exacerbated by alcohol.
- Tolerance, as defined by either of the following:
- a) A need for markedly increased amounts of alcohol to achieve intoxication or desired effect, or
- b) A markedly diminished effect with continued use of the same amount of alcohol.
- Withdrawal, as manifested by either of the following:
- a) The characteristic withdrawal syndrome for alcohol
- b) Alcohol (or a closely related substance, such as a benzodiazepine) is taken to relieve or avoid withdrawal symptoms.
