Nevada

Millions of people throughout the world, many in Nevada, engage in irresponsible and excessive drinking and exhibit alcohol abuse problems. Such drinking behavior is known as alcohol abuse. A lot of people apparently do not realize that binge drinking, which is a special form of alcohol abuse, can cause the person's body to shut down and stop functioning.

In short, binge drinking, in some instances, can result is the loss of an individual's life. Though most people in Nevada have heard about alcohol abuse, more than a few individuals have asked the following question: exactly what is alcohol abuse? Alcohol abuse is a drinking pattern that frequently results in one or more of the following during a twelve-month time frame:

  • Alcohol-related physical injury
  • Ongoing alcohol-related relationship issues
  • The experience of recurring alcohol-related legal difficulties (such as multiple DUIs)
  • The failure to attend to important responsibilities at school, work, or home

If you abuse alcohol you are a "problem drinker" and you may be gambling with your life. How is this possible, you ask? Not unlike what happens when people abuse other drugs, many individuals who engage in binge drinking, who drink irresponsibly, or who on a regular basis engage in alcohol abuse sooner or later may become alcohol dependent.

To be more specific, the more a person continues to binge drink and abuse alcohol the more likely he or she will eventually become an alcoholic. In short, when a problem drinker starts to crave alcohol, builds up a tolerance for alcohol, loses total control regarding drinking, and experiences alcohol withdrawal symptoms, he or she has made the regrettable transition from alcohol abuse to alcohol dependency.

The Nevada community is all too familiar with the ugly cycle of alcohol abuse. Everyone suffers a negative affect with alcohol abuse. There are never any positives to being an alcoholic. Alcohol abuse treatment clinics are accessible in Nevada. If your loved one won't take the first step, perhaps you should.

Contacting a Nevada alcohol abuse treatment center is the best move you can make, whether you are the alcohol abuser, or a loved one. At times, alcohol intervention is necessary, but professionals at the alcohol abuse treatment centers can tell you more about that, and if it is possible.

Alcohol abuse treatment programs in Nevada and across the United States vary from program to program. Each individual has a plan mapped out specifically for them at rehabilitation centers. Plans may include outpatient treatment, or they may be as extensive as residential treatment, or somewhere in between. Only by speaking with someone at a Nebraska alcohol abuse treatment facility can you find out what can be done.

Once you or your loved one has decided on attending alcohol abuse treatment in Nevada, the next step is alcohol detox. Alcohol detox is something that every alcoholic must undergo in order to free himself from alcohol addiction. Undergoing "alcohol detox" at a qualified alcohol detox recovery center avoids all that unpleasantness and helps a recovering alcoholic through this first critical step on the road to recovery.

Put simply, alcohol is addictive, and over time, the body builds up a chemical dependency which manifests in intense cravings for a drink. The cravings can be triggered by any number of things, including stress, the smell of alcohol, or a hundred other things. Completing a Nevada alcohol detox begins by removing all lingering traces of booze from the alcoholic's body, flushing out all the toxins and residue, and dealing with any physical conditions brought on by short- or long-term alcohol abuse.

The next step in alcohol abuse recovery is completing a Nevada alcohol rehab program. Most alcohol rehab programs focus on two key elements: behavior and change. The first key component of every alcohol rehab program is to help the alcohol abuser see the extent of their alcohol using behavior and what the impact that behavior is having on them and the people around them.

The next key component of most Nevada alcohol rehab programs is change. All forms of recovery from alcohol abuse require some form of change of thinking, behaving and reacting to life. As a recovering alcoholic you will need to change where you go, who you go with and why. Successful alcohol rehab programs are very understanding of the many changes a person with alcohol abuse problems has to go through to stop and stay clean.

Quick Drug Facts

According to one study, malt-liquor drinkers are more likely to be homeless, unemployed, or receiving public assistance than those who drink other alcoholic beverages. The study also concluded that malt-liquor drinkers consumed more alcohol than other drinkers, in part because malt liquor has a higher alcohol content than beer and is sold in larger containers.
The average alcohol content of wine sold in the United States fell from 16.75 percent in 1950 to 10.49 percent in 1991 before rebounding slightly to 11.45 in 2002.
An econometric analysis using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 estimated that a 28% reduction in alcohol advertising would reduce adolescent monthly alcohol participation from 25% to between 24% and 21%, and would reduce adolescent participation in binge drinking from 12% to between 11% and 8%.
Whiskey and whisky both refer to alcohol distilled from grain. Whiskey is the usual American spelling, especially for beverages distilled in the U.S. and Ireland. Whisky is the spelling for Canadian and Scotch distilled beverages.
