Alcohol Rehab Ventura & Oxnard California
Many people drink alcohol, and some occasionally misuse it and overindulge. This might occur once a year – on New Year’s Eve, a birthday, a wedding or after a breakup. But if your drinking is causing issues either for yourself or others, on a regular basis, it is time to look inward and admit to yourself that you could have a problem. If those around you – your friends, your family – suggest that you slow down your drinking, you probably need help.
Make an Honest Assessment
If you’re even slightly concerned, then here are some questions to ask yourself:
- Does my drinking negatively affect my everyday life?
- Have I called in “sick” to work, or has my work suffered, because of my drinking or a hangover?
- Have I missed appointments or planned events because I was too drunk to attend?
- Have I gotten into fights or been asked to leave certain places, due to my drinking?
- Have I had problems with my spouse or a significant other because of my alcohol use?
- Have I tried to limit my drinking, but found it too difficult to do?
Be honest. If you answered “yes” at any time, treatment for alcohol abuse could be very helpful for you. Alcoholism can sometimes be difficult to admit…not only for you, but for your loved ones as well. Occasionally, you may not realize that you have a problem, but usually those who abuse alcohol do not acknowledge it because they are in denial.
Give Yourself Permission
Whatever those in your circle – a boss, a friend, a parent or spouse – might think about your drinking habits, they can’t force you to seek help. You have to do it of your own volition. It is you who must want to take that first important step of admitting your problem and seeking professional treatment. You must want it for yourself and realize that you deserve to have a better life, free of alcohol’s tenacious grip.
