Utah

Today, alcohol abuse is a huge problem in Utah and the rest of America. The cost of alcohol abuse is staggering. In Utah and around the world, alcohol abuse is a major social health problem. The negative effects of alcohol abuse include social, economic, family, health, and career, psychological and public safety. During the past two decades, five major studies have estimated the economic costs of alcohol abuse in the United States using the "cost of illness" approach, which expresses the multidimensional impact of a health problem in dollars. The most recent estimate of the overall economic cost of alcohol abuse was $185 billion for 1998, which is a projection based on the comprehensive cost estimate of $148 billion for 1992.

More than 70 percent of the estimated costs of alcohol abuse for 1998 were attributed to lost productivity ($134.2 billion), including losses from alcohol-related illness ($87.6 billion), premature death ($36.5 billion), and crime ($10.1 billion). The remaining estimated costs included health care expenditures ($26.3 billion, or 14.3 percent of the total), such as the costs of treating alcohol abuse and dependence ($7.5 billion) and the costs of treating the adverse medical consequences of alcohol consumption ($18.9 billion); as well as property and administrative costs of alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes ($15.7 billion, or 8.5 percent); and criminal justice system costs of alcohol-related crime ($6.3 billion, or 3.4 percent).

There are few communities in Utah and across America which have not seen and felt the havoc that alcohol abuse creates. Today there are an estimated 20 million or more Americans who depend on drugs (illicit and prescription) or alcohol and are searching for an inpatient drug and alcohol rehab. And these numbers do not include the millions of families and loved ones who are undoubtedly confused at which alcohol rehab facility to choose.

All these unfortunate statistics leave many in Utah and across America turning to government and state-funded alcohol abuse treatment programs, both inpatient and outpatient. Some of the residential alcohol abuse treatment centers, often filled to maximum capacity and utilizing ineffective treatment methods, create a revolving door in the American drug and alcohol abuse treatment system and leave behind a wake of addicts and alcoholics moving from one alcohol abuse treatment program to the next.

When you enter a successful alcohol abuse treatment center in Utah the first part of recovery is alcohol detox. A successful alcohol detox program is one that helps patients make a smooth transition into the alcohol rehab process. To that end, alcohol detox services work best when they're tailored to the individual needs of recovering person. No one has ever experienced alcohol abuse quite the same way you have. It follows that your alcohol abuse treatment program has to be uniquely your own.

While in alcohol abuse treatment, your alcohol detox doctors and caregivers can give you the sort of intimate, expert support you need to weather the strain of alcohol withdrawal. No, it won't be easy, because nothing about alcohol abuse treatment is ever easy. It will, however, be worth it. The medicinal and physical therapy you get in a Utah alcohol detox center will set you on a path towards meaningful alcohol abuse recovery. In the end, it's hard to imagine how anything could ever be more important than that.

There is, of course, but one acceptable end of the alcohol rehab process, one target for which all rehabilitation programs do and must ultimately aim: alcohol abuse recovery. Alcohol rehab that fails to effect meaningful and substantive sobriety doesn't deserve to be called alcohol abuse treatment at all; addiction counseling which leaves addiction still standing is, to say the least, a gross contradiction in terms. To get better, you've got to get all the way better. In the fight against alcohol abuse, partial victory just isn't good enough.

What that means, in a practical sense, is that successful Utah alcohol rehab programs do and must account for the long-term health of their patients. Concretely, aftercare and sober living services can be vital in promoting lasting sobriety, especially insofar as they provide a bridge between the cloistered security of primary alcohol rehab and the rugged independence of the real world. The alcohol rehab center that's right for you, then, is and must be the one that leaves you on stable footing the day you say goodbye to it.

Quick Drug Facts

People observe that "drinking declines with age". Why might this happen? First, alcohol misusers find as they get older that large amounts of alcohol are not as pleasurable as they used to be, and such amounts tend to cause more troublesome physical and mental effects. Thus abusers tend to moderate their drinking. In addition, alcohol dependent people are often in recovery at older ages. Is there much research on this topic? Not nearly enough.
When someone has an alcohol problem, they follow certain patterns: -lie to sober friends -hide it from sober friends -party more with drinking friends -deny they have a problem
Is alcohol dependence a genetic issue? Yes, with qualifications. Genetics studies performed over the past 20-25 years have clearly shown that the tendency to become alcohol dependent ("alcoholic") is inherited. In other words, genetic vulnerability coupled with unknown environmental factors is the cause of most types of alcohol dependence. Science has yet to fully understand the transmission of genetic vulnerability, and the specific environmental factors that trigger the issue.
Before thermometers were invented, brewers would dip a thumb or finger into the liquid to determine the ideal temperature, neither too hot nor too cold, for adding yeast. From this we get the phrase "rule of thumb."
