Alcohol Dependence Stages
If a person has perceptions and attitudes uniform with those that addicts typically exhibit, alcohol dependence can actually start before the alcohol consumption gets started.
Alcoholism Stage 2: Initial Use
Stage two can include the experimental usage of alcohol, periodic use, or periodic binge drinking (i.e., one or two times a year). First usage of alcohol may not be a problem for the user or those people who are close to the user. Occasional alcohol consumption may provoke difficulties while the user is drunk or the next day, he or she hasn't got to the stage of addiction.
Alcoholism Stage 3: Significant Risk Usage
High risk describes an abundance of drinking, and poor choices made when drunk. At this stage, the pattern and regularity of alcohol abuse is significant enough to be hazardous for the drinker and those around them.
Alcoholism Stage 4: Problematic Use
Problematic usage of alcohol happens when the negative consequences of drinking becomes observable. Health concerns become issues, including things like damaged liver function and/or STDs (sexual transmitted diseases).
Alcoholism Stage 5: Early Stage of Dependence
The early stage of alcohol addiction is characterized by noticeable issues. At this point, alcohol rehab is most effective.
Alcoholism Stage 6: Middle Stage of Dependency
During the middle stage of alcohol addiction, negative consequences begin to escalate. The user loses his or her job due to a lot of skipped days at work. Alcohol-induced fights end relationships. The effects of the negative consequences of alcoholism become irreversible.
Alcoholism Stage 7: Crisis Stage of Dependency
At this crisis point, everyone takes note of the effects of alcoholism, including the alcoholic. Serious physical health concerns become issues. The alcoholic is seldom without a drink, but the drinker believes he or she is deceiving everyone. If they do not enter alcohol rehab, this stage frequently results in alcohol-related deaths for the users.
Stage two can include things like the experimental usage of alcohol, periodic usage, or periodic binge alcohol consumption (i.e., once or twice a year). First usage of alcohol may not yet be a concern for the user or those people who are close to the user. Problematic usage of alcohol occurs when the negative consequences of alcohol consumption becomes evident. The early stage of alcohol dependence is distinguisheded by obvious problems. At this point, alcohol rehab is most effective.
