Alcohol Addiction

When alcohol consumption starts to affect your life in negative ways or you find it hard to go a day or two without drinking, it’s time to reach out for help. Whether it’s causing issues at work, with your family and relationships, or keeping you from achieving personal goals, what you might call heavy drinking can actually become an alcohol addiction quicker than you may think. 

Alcohol is a drug you can become physically dependent on when you abuse it. People who become dependent on alcohol get to a point where they physically need it everyday, and it can actually be dangerous to try to stop drinking without medical assistance. If you or someone you love is dealing with the effects of alcohol addiction, our team is here to help.

  • Alcohol use — ie. going out, buying alcohol, consuming it, feeling sick after drinking, or recovering from the effects of drinking too much— takes up a lot of your time.
