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.

Take a look at my website www.addictioncare.co.uk.

Alcohol is a drug and an extremely addictive one at that. The problem is that alcohol is widely available to anyone in the UK currently over the age of 18. Therefore, if you or someone you care about has an alcohol addiction then professional treatment to aid in effective recovery is required.

As all human beings are unique, people respond to addiction treatments differently, that’s why we tailor our alcohol treatments to the person instead of trying to get the person to adapt to a treatment plan. That being said, from our years of experience we have proven treatments in place that work and we are here to help ensure that recovery is successful. We also have programmes in place for the family of the person suffering from the addiction to help educate and provide support.

If you would like more information about the alcohol treatment in Surrey we offer then please call us on 01483 533300. We will be more than happy to help. If you prefer you can email us at info@addictioncare.co.uk.
