      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      What are the signs of liver damage from alcoholism?

      Alcoholism, or Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), can lead to liver damage over time as the liver struggles to process excessive amounts of alcohol. Liver damage due to alcoholism can manifest in various ways, with signs ranging from mild to severe. Some common signs of liver damage from alcoholism include:

      • Jaundice: One of the most recognizable signs of liver damage is the yellowing of the skin and eyes, known as jaundice. This occurs when the liver is unable to properly process bilirubin, a waste product that accumulates in the body.
      • Abdominal pain: Individuals with liver damage may experience pain or discomfort in the upper right abdomen, where the liver is located.
      • Swelling in the abdomen: Liver damage can lead to the accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity, a condition known as ascites. This can cause swelling and discomfort in the abdomen.
      • Fatigue: Impaired liver function can result in persistent fatigue, weakness, and a general lack of energy.
      • Dark urine: Liver damage can cause the urine to become darker in color, often appearing brown or tea-colored.
      • Pale or bloody stools: Individuals with liver damage may notice pale, clay-colored, or bloody stools, indicating that the liver is struggling to process waste products.
      • Bruising or bleeding easily: The liver plays a crucial role in blood clotting. When the liver is damaged, it may struggle to produce adequate clotting factors, resulting in easy bruising or prolonged bleeding from minor cuts or injuries.
      • Loss of appetite: Liver damage can lead to a decreased appetite or unexplained weight loss.
      • Nausea and vomiting: Impaired liver function can cause feelings of nausea or even vomiting.
      • Itchy skin: Liver damage can result in the buildup of bile salts in the skin, leading to itchiness and irritation.
      • Spider angiomas: Some individuals with liver damage may develop small, spider-like blood vessels visible beneath the skin, known as spider angiomas.
      • Confusion or disorientation: In advanced cases of liver damage, toxins that would normally be filtered by the liver can build up in the bloodstream and affect brain function, leading to confusion, disorientation, or even coma.

      It is important to seek medical attention if you or someone you know is experiencing signs of liver damage from alcoholism. Early diagnosis and intervention can help prevent further damage and improve the chances of recovery. Treatment may include abstaining from alcohol, making lifestyle changes, and addressing any underlying health conditions contributing to liver damage.


      When a person is a substance abuser, don't they realize their life is being destroyed?

      Substance Use Disorder, commonly known as addiction, is a complex condition that can significantly impact a person's judgment, perceptions, and decision-making abilities. Here are a few reasons why someone struggling with substance abuse might not fully realize the extent of the damage it's causing to their life:

      Denial: It's common for individuals suffering from addiction to be in denial about the extent of their problem. They might underestimate how much or how often they use, or they may not acknowledge the negative consequences that their substance use is causing.

      Altered Brain Function: Addiction affects the brain's reward system and impairs cognitive function. This can distort a person's ability to clearly see the harm that their substance use is causing. They may focus intensely on the immediate rewards of drug use while minimizing or ignoring the long-term negative consequences.

      Co-occurring Disorders: Many people with Substance Use Disorder also have other mental health disorders, such as depression or anxiety. These conditions can exacerbate feelings of denial or self-deception about the extent of the substance abuse problem.

      Fear and Shame: Fear of withdrawal, fear of change, and shame about their substance use can also prevent individuals from admitting to themselves or others the full extent of their problem.

      Lack of Awareness: Some individuals may not understand the signs and symptoms of addiction, or they may not recognize that they can seek help and that recovery is possible.


      What drugs turn off emotions and make you feel numb?

      Several classes of drugs can have the effect of numbing emotions or creating a feeling of emotional detachment. It's important to note that these effects can vary widely between individuals and depend on many factors, including the dosage, the method of use, and the individual's personal physiology and psychology. Here are a few examples:

      Depressants: This category of drugs, which includes alcohol, benzodiazepines (like Xanax or Valium), and opioids (like heroin or prescription painkillers), can reduce brain activity and dull emotions. Users often report feeling numb or detached from their emotions.

      Dissociatives: Dissociative drugs like ketamine, PCP, and certain kinds of cough medicines containing dextromethorphan (DXM), can induce a state of detachment from reality and one's self, which can include a sense of emotional numbness.

      Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs): While primarily used as antidepressants, some individuals report feeling emotionally numb or detached when taking SSRIs. This is generally considered a side effect, and if experienced, should be discussed with a healthcare provider.

      Antipsychotics: These medications are primarily used to treat conditions like schizophrenia, but they can also induce a state of emotional numbness or flatness in some individuals.

      While these substances can make a person feel emotionally numb, it's important to note that this is often a temporary and potentially harmful solution. Long-term use can lead to a range of negative health effects, including physical dependence, addiction, and a worsening of emotional or mental health symptoms. If you're feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, it's crucial to seek help from a mental health professional rather than turning to substances. They can provide support and discuss healthier ways to cope with these feelings.
