The UK and Europe are watching football. It’s an exciting time for those football fans and supporters.
They love the game and all those BBQ’s and family gatherings with friend’s are a must. No one wants to
be left out.

For those with a drink problem, it’s a bad time. Imagine the person struggling with alcohol – wanting to
mix with family and friends at that BBQ – friends or family being a little intoxicated and then the problem
– “Surely one drink won’t hurt you”!!

The fact is – if you are an alcoholic and are choosing to live in sobriety – that first drink will start the
addictive cycle of again. For an alcoholic “One is too many and a thousand never enough”. Once someone
with a drink problem has that first drink – there will be a second and a third and then it’s like the old
times. That person goes back to old drinking ways faster than you can imagine. This is so hard for
friends and family to understand – they probably don’t have a drink problem – they don’t understand that
one drink will equal chaos to the alcoholic.

This is not just true of people with alcohol problems – all addictions are the same.
Alcohol, Drugs, Gambling, Food, Sex, Pornography, Relationship and Co-dependency are all the same.
For people with an Addictive Personality, we all have the problem. No matter what the drug of choice
is.

So far this year we have helped a number of individuals who are addicted to alcohol, including their affected families with the alcohol rehabilitation programmes we offer from our rehab centre in Surrey. It goes without saying that successfully going through rehabilitation and having sustained recovery from alcohol is difficult. After all, alcohol is a substance which is readily available in the UK. However, with our help we are confident that recovery is most certainly achievable.

We start our process with you by talking and finding out what caused your dependency on alcohol to arise. Only once the cause has been established and resolved will a recovery to your alcohol addiction be successful.

With regards to our family programme, we are here to educate and provide help to family members of the person suffering from an alcohol addiction so they can provide the correct support when our time has ended together.

For more information about our alcohol rehab centre in Surrey, or to book your rehab programme with us today, please call our team on 01483 533300. If you prefer, you can email us at info@addictioncare.co.uk.
