Understanding Alcohol Addiction
Addiction to alcohol, also known as alcohol use disorder (AUD), is a chronic disease that affects millions of individuals and families. It’s not simply a matter of willpower — alcohol dependency changes the brain, making it difficult to stop drinking without the right support. Left untreated, alcohol dependence can impact physical health, relationships, work, and overall well-being. However, with comprehensive alcohol addiction treatment, recovery is possible.
According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 28.9 million people in the U.S. ages 23 and older had Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) in 2023. (source)

Signs & Symptoms of Alcohol Addiction
Recognizing the signs of alcohol addiction or alcohol use disorder (AUD) can help you determine if you or a loved one needs alcohol rehab or professional support. Some key indicators include:
- Physical Symptoms:
- Increased tolerance (needing more alcohol to feel the same effects)
- Withdrawal symptoms (shakiness, sweating, nausea, anxiety) when not drinking
- Blackouts or memory loss due to drinking
- Drinking despite health problems
- Behavioral & Emotional Symptoms:
- Drinking more or longer than intended
- Inability to cut down or stop drinking despite wanting to
- Neglecting responsibilities at work, school, or home due to alcohol use
- Loss of interest in hobbies and social activities
- Drinking to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, or past trauma
- Preoccupation with drinking
- Continued drinking despite negative consequences
If any of these signs sound familiar, seeking treatment for alcohol addiction at The Meadows can help you regain control and achieve lasting sobriety.
