Introduction to Alcoholism Treatment in Ohio
LEARN MORE ABOUT THE DISEASE
What is Alcoholism?
Called by many names, alcoholism is an illness that does not discriminate based on age or any other demographic. The National Institutes on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism estimate over seventeen million American adults ages eighteen and over struggle with an alcohol use disorder to varying severities. Also, another nine million adolescents between ages twelve and seventeen meet the diagnostic criteria for an alcohol use disorder.
Unlike addictions or dependencies on many other substances, alcohol addiction takes time to develop. In the clinical setting, alcohol use disorders are classified according to severity levels provided in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, or DSM-5. Alcohol addiction is unique to the individual, and no two people will present or experience alcoholism in the same way. Because of this, the DSM-5 lists eleven criteria to help mental health and medical professionals accurately diagnose the presence and severity of an alcohol use disorder. You do not need to have all of the criteria to struggle with an alcohol use disorder. Generally, if you experience two or three criteria, it is considered a mild disorder; four or five are deemed moderate, and six or more are considered severe. Someone is usually diagnosed with an alcohol use disorder when their drinking interferes with work, school, family, and other responsibilities, or they continue to consume (or crave) alcohol despite known harmful consequences.

KNOW THE SYMPTOMS AND SAVE A LIFE
What are the Signs of Alcoholism?
Alcohol addiction presents both physical and psychological symptoms. The eleven criteria given in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, address both of these elements. When someone struggles with an alcohol addiction or alcoholism, they are likely to experience both physical and emotional struggles. If left untreated, abuse of alcohol can quickly evolve into something severe and potentially life-threatening. Understanding the warning signs of alcoholism is vital to ensuring you or a loved one receives early access to alcohol addiction treatment. Some of the most common signs of alcoholism include:
Sudden changes in mood or frequent, unexpected mood swings
Changes in cognitive ability such as difficulties with short-term memory or blackouts
Increased isolation and voluntary distancing from friends and family
Choosing to drink over addressing essential responsibilities and obligations
Changes in appearance and increased lack of concern about hygiene and personal care
Drinking alone or finding “reasons” or excuses to drink
Craving alcohol when one is unable to access alcohol or is not drinking
No matter how minor or severe, any symptoms of an alcohol use disorder should not be ignored. Without treatment, an alcohol use disorder can quickly get worse, putting both your emotional and physical health at risk.

The Types of Alcohol Treatment Centers in Ohio
Deciding to get sober from alcohol is a difficult decision and one that should not be undertaken without the support of professional addiction treatment. Detoxing from alcohol is often more challenging than many other substances. Quitting alcohol suddenly, also called “cold turkey,” can be dangerous and, in some cases, fatal. It is essential to receive proper medical care and support while detoxing from alcohol addiction at a detox center in Ohio like Findlay Recovery Center. During withdrawal, your body attempts to readjust to functioning without alcohol. This process can lead to various symptoms and complications. The most severe effects of withdrawal can include dangerous symptoms, including delirium tremens (DT), shaking, headache, high blood pressure, seizures, hallucinations, nausea, and confusion. These are the symptoms that, depending on the severity of the addiction, can be fatal. For these reasons, detoxing in a professionally monitored environment under medically supervised detox is crucial to your safety and success. Once detox is complete, generally within three to seven days, you can seamlessly transition to our inpatient addiction treatment in Ohio.
