Alcohol abuse effects are wide spreading and consequential but alcohol abuse effects can be summed up in one word- damage. Alcohol abuse effects damage the mind, body and soul. The mind suffers from alcohol abuse effects; hallucinations, confusion, negative thoughts, and depression are only a few of the effects on the mind.
The body is often a secondary indicator of a real problem as deterioration as a result of alcohol abuse effects can come years after damage to the mind as already occurred. The body suffers from rapid heart rate, excessive sweating, restlessness, agitation, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and possible tremors and seizures all as a result of alcohol abuse effects. These are clear indicators that the body has become dependent on alcohol and will most likely need to be detoxified before any other treatment is to occur.

Let's go back to alcohol abuse effects on the mind. Have you ever noticed that you can't remember large blocks of time after drinking? These "blackouts" are a sure sign that the brain has had too much alcohol and is being damaged. Abusive drinkers may have had none, or only a few blackouts or may blackout every time they drink. In either case it is a sure sign that help is needed.
Perhaps you are at the point where you cannot seem to think clearly without a drink. Do you need a drink in the morning just to start your day and clear your head? You may have noticed that your body requires much more alcohol now than it used to as your tolerance increases. The body copes with alcohol by shutting down and you may have noticed increased numbness, tingling and abdominal pain. It is no secret that the liver is severely overworked when processing large amounts of alcohol and swelling of the liver could be a warning sign of cirrhosis.
Have you been told, or do you feel that you are becoming more aggressive and hostile? Alcohol abuse effects on the mind include reducing the gamma-aminobutyoric acid receptor complex that regulates "acting out" by creating anxiety about one's actions. Without these GABA-A receptors, you may be coming across very unsociable and not even realize it.
So far we've only discussed the alcohol abuse effects on the mind and body. The real benefit of becoming a client at Dr. Paul's at the Bay is the revitalization of your soul. We can help you overcome your shame, deal with your guilt, and help you break the isolation that you find yourself in and have the life you desperately desire.
