Therefore, a valuable and important first step in your journey to an alcohol-free life is to accept and understand that you may be in need of help from an alcohol therapist. Pay attention to the signs:

  • Daily, strong need, craving, or urge to drink alcohol

  • Problems with coordination

  • Feelings of anxiety, euphoria, general discontent, guilt, or loneliness

  • Physically feeling dizzy and/or shaking 

  • Behaving with aggression, agitation, lack of restraint, or with a self-destructive behavior

Steps to Living Alcohol-free

Once you are aware of your need for help, call Stepping Stones for the next steps. Stepping Stones’ alcohol therapists strongly believe that anyone with an alcohol abuse condition deserves help. 

1.) Effective treatment of an alcohol problem starts with an assessment or evaluation. This evaluation aims to determine whether a legitimate addiction is present, the extent of said addiction, and the existence of co-occurring conditions. When the measurements are finalized, the assessment also assists in the development of an appropriate treatment plan with your alcohol therapist. 

2.) Treating patients with an alcohol abuse disorder requires individualized attention from an alcohol therapist, as no two situations are similar. The same is true for the medication that they may need. Treatments like this are a huge help for people who are not aware of the situation they are in and would deny treatment if confronted.
