Alcohol abuse very often develops into alcoholism. A person becomes lost to society and family, to himself. How to help a drunkard cope with addiction?
Instructions
Step 1
Demonstrate your negative attitude towards the drinker. Do not indulge him, do not make excuses for such behavior.
Step 2
Conduct conversations: ask the drinking person to remember the times when he did not drink, tell him about the losses (moral, physical, material, etc.) that he and those around him bear as a result of such drunkenness.
Prove the pointlessness of existence in such a state, refer to specific examples.
Step 3
Try to figure out why the person drinks. What reasons or events prompted him to behave like this. Accumulated problems very often become the reason for drunkenness. Perhaps the help of an experienced psychologist is needed to solve such problems.
Step 4
Occupy the drinking person's free time with various useful activities that he likes. Find a hobby, get pets, play a sport with him, etc.
Step 5
Do not provoke a person into another libation - do not arrange scandals and other showdowns, both large and small.
Step 6
Do not let the person go for a walk when he has a hangover syndrome. He will definitely find ways to hangover. It is better to use any medication to relieve this syndrome.
Step 7
Use tablets like Esperal, Teturam, etc. only after consulting a narcologist. Not all people tolerate these drugs well enough. If used ineptly, they can be great harm to the body.
Step 8
Assign a person to a drug treatment clinic, sometimes this is the only way out in the fight against alcoholism. In such hospitals, cravings for alcohol are removed by cleansing the body of the poisons and toxins of alcohol.
Step 9
Do not give up, do not give up in the fight against this addiction. After all, from alcoholism of a man or woman, their children and the whole family suffer very much.
