Maine

There are many people who suffer with alcohol abuse in Maine. People with alcohol abuse problems have negative and debilitating drinking patterns that are not accompanied by the symptoms of alcoholism. While alcohol abusers don't experience craving, uncontrollable drinking, physical dependence and tolerance, alcoholics may experience many of the signs of alcohol abuse. Alcohol abuse results in one or more of the following conditions over a twelve-month period:

  • failure to meet responsibilities at work, home or school
  • risky, dangerous drinking, such as drinking while driving
  • regular law enforcement conflicts related to drinking, such as driving under the influence or assault while drunk
  • continued drinking in spite of the negative effects of alcohol on career, health or relationships

Many residents of Maine are in the deep despair of alcohol abuse problems, yet not receiving treatment. That loneliness need not continue. Others do understand, and can help. Alcohol abuse treatment for problem drinking is not easy, but when compared to the bright, happy life that awaits you, it is worth it. In Maine, people who are suffering with alcohol abuse are not happy and they are not healthy. They drag their entire family down with them, even though this is not their intent.

Any person with alcohol abuse problems can become a functioning, happy individual with a bright future. That is what is most difficult for the person abusing alcohol to understand. Maine alcohol abuse treatment clinics walk that journey with their clients to see the other side of the rainbow. Don't be alone anymore. Stop watching loved ones suffer and act today. Help is only a phone call away.

Alcohol detox is the first step in the alcohol abuse treatment process. What does attending a Maine alcohol detox mean? Alcohol detox can be defined as a period of time during which the body begins to adjust to a lack of alcohol. Alcohol detox programs are designed to help you during this uncomfortable process with the assistance of medication as deemed appropriate.

Statistics compiled after years of research have found that the vast majority of people that complete alcohol detox, but fail to continue treatment in a residential addiction treatment center, end up in relapse. Alcohol detox is a vital component in the recovery process, but lasting recovery is generally achieved through multidisciplinary protocols that address the root of the addiction and not just its physical effects. Start your path to a healthier, happier life by entering into a Maine alcohol detox program.

Once alcohol detox is complete; you are ready to enter a Maine alcohol rehab. There are many different types of alcohol rehab programs available in Maine. Some are residences, while others provide services on an outpatient basis. The length of time one stays in an alcohol rehab facility can run anywhere from a few days, to several months. It all depends upon the types of method employed by the alcohol rehab facility as well as the severity of the individual's alcohol abuse problems.

Some alcohol rehab facilities in Maine also provide aftercare programs. In an aftercare program, the recovering alcoholic returns for follow up classes and counseling after his or her alcohol rehab program is complete. These services are important because they help add an additional level of accountability for the recovering alcoholic, and also because they help guide the individual back into a mainstream life without alcohol. Lastly, it is important to note that in Maine and across the United States alcohol rehab facilities can be quite expensive, with some even running several thousand dollars a day. There are alcohol rehab facilities that are more affordable and find a way to work within the budget (or insurance plan) of the incoming patient.
