Intervention Services for Alcohol and Drug Abuse

 

Why might Intervention Services be needed?

 

Alcohol abuse and drug addiction are progressive diseases which, in most instances, begin slowly and grow until the chemically dependent person‘s life becomes unmanageable. As repeated efforts to gain control over the addiction fail, the addict’s quality of life begins to deteriorate. The cost of the disease is often realized through the loss of family, friends, employment, and self-esteem.

 

Alcoholism and drug addiction destroy lives and families. Despite the consequences, the alcoholic or drug abuser continues to use alcohol or drugs and refuses to seek professional help, even after efforts to slow down or stop on their own end in failure. They need help and they need to realize that they need help.

 

Could my family, friend, or loved one benefit from Intervention Services? See if these questions help you make that determination:

• Do they drink (use) more than in the past
• Do they drink alone or are they secretive about their drinking
• Do they withdraw from social relationships
• Do they experience mood swings or depression
• Do they slur their speech
• Do they have recurrent memory loss
• Do they neglect their appearance
• Do they have bruises from bumping or falling
• Do they complain about not sleeping properly
• Do they have trembling hands not caused by some other known medical problem

Answering yes to any of these questions could indicate alcohol or drug problems.

 

There is hope. A professional intervention can make a difference.
