"Drinking at home alone? Using alcohol to cope with anxiety? These are signs you possibly could be drinking too much, too often"
"Ryan Erispe, head of the Clinical Department at The Cabin, Drug and Alcohol Rehab in Thailand, looks at signs you could be drinking too much and too often, and offers advice for individuals who are concerned with their drinking habits or those of a loved one."
"Drinking every night is a problem if you are drinking more than health guidelines recommend, gradually increasing your intake, or using alcohol to cope with negative emotions. In Ireland, the HSE states there is no level of alcohol use that is safe for health."
Drinking at home alone and using alcohol to cope with anxiety are indicators of problematic drinking. Drinking every night becomes problematic when consumption exceeds health guidelines, gradually increases over time, or serves as a coping mechanism for negative emotions. In Ireland, the HSE states there is no level of alcohol use that is safe for health. Individuals concerned about their own drinking or that of a loved one should seek advice, support, and assessment from health or addiction services. Clinical rehabilitation and support services can address harmful drinking patterns and underlying emotional drivers.
