if you need help

As a group of individuals who have struggled with alcoholism for years, we understand how hard it can be to ask for help. Admitting to oneself that they have an issue with alcohol can be a daunting task, let alone asking for help. Alcoholism is a disease that can quickly spiral out of control, and seeking assistance can feel shameful and embarrassing. It is often accompanied by feelings of guilt, shame, and denial, leading to a cycle of problematic drinking. People struggling with alcoholism may feel isolated and scared, so reaching out for support demands courage. It involves admitting that one has a problem and that one cannot overcome it alone, which can feel like admitting weakness. However, asking for help is the first step towards recovery, and various treatment options are available to help individuals manage their addiction. Despite its difficulty, asking for help is necessary for anyone who wants to regain control of their life.
