Alcoholism is Not A Disease - Video
I want to share a video I accidentally found at Youtube. According to Dr. Stanton Peele, alcoholism is not a disease. He said that many people can overcome alcoholism. You be the judge.
And also, I stumbled across an interesting blog that you may find useful in regards to binge drinking and alcohol addiction. You may want to check it out.
Cheers!
Admitting Your Drinking Problems
It may not be easy for an alcoholic to quit drinking alcohol. A person who is suffering from alcoholism frequently encounters physical, psychological and emotional difficulties as well as social and domestic issue as he struggles to give up the habit. He can have hard time facing the changes that will occur as he transforms his attitude, his behavior and his life in general.
Now that he has decided to quit drinking alcohol, he can now begin making changes in his life and start transforming it into a better one. His life may turned into a total wreck due to frequent alcohol abuse and may have been into some difficulties lately as alcohol created damaging effects into his physical, emotional and psychological aspects. And all these effects can destroy his personality, self-confidence and determination making it very strenuous in regards to quitting alcohol. But if he has enough determination to stand with his two feet, he can easily shift it into becoming a better person.
Acknowledging Your Mistakes Is the Very First Step
In pursuit of ways on how to quit drinking alcohol, I came across many personal blogs and websites that help me identify my drinking problems. I do research and study almost every blog I stumbled upon in order to pinpoint and obtain all the necessary ingredients to beat my alcohol addiction. Fortunately, it only took me two months of extensive reading and making inquiries to fulfill my goal. I successfully quit drinking and I am seven years now enjoying a life without booze. You, too, can do it. I know. And we all can fight alcoholism even in our own little steps.
One little advice that these blogs have in common is that really helped me is that I must admit my mistakes in the past. I should acknowledge all these wrong decisions and that I am liable for these. It is actually, (now I realized) the primary step in quitting alcohol: admitting you have problems.
By admitting I have mistakes in the past that are causing these drinking problems now, you can clearly see the associated negative situation and avoid them at the present. It is indeed correct that you are the pilot of your own life. Your past, present and future events all depend on your personal decisions and no one should be blamed except you. And for the reason that you committed some mistakes prior to these drinking problems, you are the only person that should search for ways to resolve them.
One can see the roots of the problems by simply admitting he has done wrong. It will allow him to identify the source therefore making it easier to see what should be done in order to correct them.

Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms in Quitting Drinking Alcohol
Alcohol withdrawal symptoms are the physical reaction of the system of the body that has been dependent to the addictive substance for a very extensive duration of time. These symptoms can be mild to severe depending on the period of time the person is abusing alcohol in the past. It is also the state of the process during quitting alcohol wherein the physical aspect starts to wash away the toxins and bad chemicals that have been introduced into the system on long hours of alcohol abuse. These signs of withdrawal are often described in the medical world as alcohol withdrawal syndromes.
Withdrawal symptoms when quitting alcohol may not only affect severely addicted individuals. Binge drinkers, or people who abuse alcohol on huge amounts on a short period of a given time, can also suffer from these symptoms. But fortunately, in a smaller degree as the severities of these signs depend also on the length a person is addicted to alcohol. The longer they abuse alcohol, the more likely these people will experience signs of withdrawals. And as days go by and they continue to allow alcohol into the system, it is possible that they become alcoholics making the chances of withdrawal symptoms to occur.
For an individual who is quitting alcohol for the very first time, it is practical to seek medical advice first before trying any kind of alcoholism treatments. Medical health care supervision should be implemented once the procedure starts to ensure safe recovery. Everyone should not ignore even small symptoms. There are many symptoms needed to be administered by medical doctors even if they are mild symptoms. These mild signs of withdrawal such as headaches can worsen and can lead to other bigger problems if they are not treated with proper care and supervision.
There are also several symptoms which can be classified as severe such as hallucinations and delirium tremens which obviously requires serious medical attention. It is advisable to admit one’s self to an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility to be able to get the correct treatments and emergency procedures when the symptoms worsen in the future.
A lot of us struggle to find easy ways to quit drinking alcohol and recover from alcoholism. I managed to quit drinking alcohol and live a normal life so I want to share my experiences on how an alcoholic can give up the habit of drinking excessively and maintain sobriety for the rest of their existence.
