Alcohol Abuse Self Help: Diagnosing Alcoholism

Proper diagnosis is an integral part of self-help for alcohol abuse. Alcoholics may fail to recognize some of the telltale signs of personal drinking problems. Alcoholism is a drug addiction and abusers can guide themselves to overcome the assault of denial that can interfere with their progress with violence. Overcoming the obstacles requires objectivity and evaluation.

CAGE

People who suffer from alcoholism are trapped in a lifestyle that they may feel unable to quit. In order to stop binge drinking it is necessary to look at your situation from a new perspective. Consider the CAGE approach in evaluating your circumstance. This simple anagram offers new insight into your condition.

Cut Down On Drinking

You may have tried to cut down on your drinking without success. It is important to keep in mind that it does not matter how much alcohol you consume. The focus is on how the drinking affects your ability to function. If you recognize that you need to cut back on the consumption of alcoholic beverages but you are unable to do so, you have acquired the C in CAGE.

Annoyance

Others may have made comments about your drinking patterns. If their comments make you annoyed, then you may have a problem. Your inner voice may reinforce the criticism but you may feel frustrated because you feel that you are unable to make the necessary changes.

Guilt

People who drink in excess often feel guilty about their behaviours. You may feel guilty about your drinking habits and you may feel guilty about how they affect those around you. This is a clear indication that you have problem that you really want to change.

Eye Openers

If you feel the need to have an “eye opener” in the morning to help you start your day in comfort, you require guidance and support. You have become physically dependent on alcoholic beverages.
