Stop Drinking Today and Never Relapse Again - Klish T. Kinderman
Introduction
Alcoholism, which is also known as alcohol use disorder (AUD), is a chronic and progressive condition characterized by compulsive alcohol use, despite its negative consequences on a person's physical, mental, and social well-being.
Individuals with alcoholism may have an intense craving for alcohol, experience withdrawal symptoms when they stop drinking, and have difficulty controlling their drinking behaviors.
Alcoholism can lead to a range of physical and mental health problems, including liver disease, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, depression, anxiety, and cognitive impairment. It can also cause difficulties in personal relationships, work, and other areas of life.
Alcoholism is diagnosed based on certain criteria outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5).
The connection between alcohol abuse and genetics
Research has shown that there is a significant genetic component to alcoholism, meaning that genetics plays a role in an individual's susceptibility to developing alcohol use disorder.
Studies have estimated that genetic factors account for between 40% and 60% of the risk of developing alcoholism.
Several genes have been identified that are associated with an increased risk of developing alcoholism, including genes involved in the metabolism of alcohol, neurotransmitter systems that influence reward and pleasure, and genes that affect the development of the brain's stress response system.
Having a family history of alcoholism also increases the risk of developing alcohol use disorder. Kids of alcoholics are about four times more likely than those with no family history of alcoholism to develop the condition themselves.
However, while genetics can increase the risk of developing alcoholism, it is not the only factor.
Environmental factors, such as exposure to stress, trauma, or peer pressure to drink, can also contribute to the development of alcohol use disorder.
What does your body need when you crave alcohol?
When the body craves alcohol, it may be an indication that it is experiencing physical dependence or withdrawal symptoms due to a prolonged period of heavy drinking.
However, there are other reasons why someone may crave alcohol, including psychological and social factors.
In terms of physical dependence, alcohol affects the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain, such as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate, which can lead to changes in brain activity and an increased desire to consume alcohol.
When an individual suddenly stops drinking, they may experience withdrawal symptoms, including shaking, sweating, nausea, and anxiety, which can be relieved by consuming alcohol.
It is important to note that cravings for alcohol do not necessarily indicate that the body is lacking a specific nutrient or substance. However, a healthy and balanced diet can help support the body's overall health and recovery from alcohol use disorder.
For those struggling with alcohol addiction, it can feel like an impossible cycle to break, with alcohol consumption becoming an increasingly important part of daily life.
However, it is essential to know that recovery from alcohol addiction is possible, and with the right tools and support, individuals can learn to overcome their addiction and lead a healthy, fulfilling life.
This book aims to provide practical advice and guidance for those seeking to stop their alcohol addiction, offering a step-by-step approach to recovery that draws on the latest research and expert advice.
From understanding the root causes of addiction to developing healthy coping mechanisms and building a strong support network, this book will
