DETOX
The
detox process is a little different for everyone depending greatly on the
length of time alcohol has been consumed, the physical condition of the
client, age, family history, emotional state, environmental factors and
many other complex issues. Detoxing is not an easy step in the process,
but the most important. Until harmful chemicals are released from the brain
and tissues in the body, they will continue to have negative effects on
health and behavior. Many alcoholics have become addicted to the false sense
of confidence and elation that alcohol can bring, and the sugars released
tap into neurotransmitters in the brain to send messages that “everything
is ok”. Vision and a sense of time are warped, hand/eye coordination is
off balance and the chemicals continue to reek havoc by sending more messages
to the brain by asking for more alcohol. The cycle continues. Other body
functions negatively effected by too much alcohol intake are: liver and
pancreas overload, gastrointestinal problems, high blood pressure, sexual
dysfunctions and menstruation interruption, bone loss and neurological complications.
Over time excessive alcohol intake can cause fatigue and short-term memory
loss, as well as weakness and paralysis of eye muscles. Until the chemical
chain is broken and replaced with healthy options, the need for alcohol
becomes an uncontrollable obsession. Prolonged and excessive alcohol abuse
can result in coma or even death.
