Alcoholism is a serious disease. In a sick person, the craving for alcohol cannot be associated with a lack of will or other negative personality traits. In long-term alcoholics, damage to almost all internal organ systems is observed, and a severe failure of metabolic processes occurs.
Patients experience not only physical health destruction. Alcoholism also destroys mental and social health. That is why recovery from alcohol includes a set of measures aimed at restoring all of the above-mentioned components of health.

The reasons that cause alcohol addiction are different. In the overwhelming majority of cases, they are psychological. In the frantic pace of the 21st century, it is difficult to “keep the bar”, compete, be successful, and meet the demands of society.
The lack of constructive ideas for solving life’s problems, disappointment in oneself and the world around one lead to a severe internal conflict. A person falls into depression, loses will, loses the meaning of life – the destruction of personality occurs. That is why the rehabilitation of alcoholics includes a number of successive stages:
detoxification;
symptomatic treatment;
psychotherapy;
social rehabilitation.
Recovery from alcoholism is a long process. It is not enough to cleanse the body of the breakdown products of ethyl alcohol. The patient must understand the reasons that led him to alcoholism. He needs to learn to withstand difficulties, increase stress resistance, learn to live in a new way – without alcohol.
Rehabilitation of alcoholics is a complex process of forming a new model of behavior. This is possible only on the basis of full awareness of the mistakes made, the desire to create and accept a “new self”. It is important to form positive motivation in the patient, to arouse the desire to develop and fully live in a world without alcohol.
Social rehabilitation is another important stage of recovery from alcohol. After treatment, the patient returns to his or her usual environment. The effectiveness of therapy can only be discussed if there is no relapse. It is at this stage that the patient must put into practice all the instructions he or she received in a specialized medical institution. Namely, find the strength to return to normal life and firmly resist temptations.

The opinion that there are no “former” alcoholics is very widespread. Medical statistics confirm the fact of a large number of relapses of this insidious disease.
All cases of “breakdown” have a logical explanation: In the overwhelming majority, these are patients who have undergone detoxification, felt physical relief and interrupted therapy. There are significantly fewer patients who have relapsed after rehabilitation. The explanations for this phenomenon are severe degradation of personality, severe damage to brain structures, serious problems in society.
Rehabilitation of alcoholics will be successful under the following conditions:
The patient’s desire to be treated.
Effective detoxification was carried out and the patient’s physical condition was stabilized.
Complete abstinence from alcohol at the stage of psychotherapy, social adaptation and in later life. Teaching the patient to live without alcohol is the main goal of rehabilitation measures.
