Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment

Can alcohol withdrawal be fatal?

Yes, alcohol withdrawal can be fatal in severe cases, which is why it should always be managed under the supervision of healthcare professionals. This is especially true for individuals who have been drinking heavily for a long period of time or who have a history of severe withdrawal symptoms.

The most serious form of alcohol withdrawal is called delirium tremens (DTs), which occurs in approximately 5% of patients undergoing withdrawal. It typically starts 48 to 72 hours after the last drink, and symptoms can include severe confusion, hallucinations, high blood pressure, fever, heavy sweating, and rapid heartbeat. In addition to these, seizures can occur, which add to the risk.

Delirium tremens is a medical emergency and can be life-threatening if not treated promptly. Mortality rates without treatment are estimated to be as high as 35%, but with appropriate treatment, this rate drops to 5-15%.

Even less severe cases of alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous because they can lead to dehydration, severe vomiting, or other complications. Furthermore, withdrawal symptoms can make it difficult for an individual to maintain abstinence from alcohol, increasing the risk of a potentially dangerous relapse.

How can I tell if I am an enabler?

"Enabling is a behavior often seen in the relationships of individuals struggling with addiction. An enabler, often without realizing it, may protect the individual with addiction from the consequences of their behavior, thus indirectly encouraging continued substance use. If you're unsure whether you might be enabling someone's addiction, consider the following signs:

• Rescuing: If you frequently find yourself covering up or making excuses for the individual's substance use or its consequences - like calling in sick to their job for them, paying their bills, or lying to others to conceal their addiction - this could be enabling.
• Denying: If you downplay the severity of their addiction, dismiss the negative impact it has, or avoid discussing it entirely, you may be enabling.
• Avoiding Conflict: If you consistently avoid confrontations or difficult conversations about their substance use out of fear it may cause tension or lead them to use more, this can be a form of enabling.
• Taking on Their Responsibilities: If you've taken on their duties - like household chores, parenting responsibilities, or work commitments - to compensate for their inability or unwillingness to fulfill them due to their addiction, you could be enabling.
• Providing Financial Support: If you're frequently giving them money, which they could be using to support their addiction, or bailing them out of financial problems caused by their substance use, this is often a clear sign of enabling.
• Ignoring Damaging Behaviors: If you tend to overlook or dismiss destructive or harmful behaviors associated with their addiction, you may be enabling.

What are substance abuse factors for lgbtq+ individuals?

Substance abuse among LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others) individuals is influenced by a range of factors. These factors often intersect and can compound the risk for developing substance use disorders. Some of the primary factors include:

• Minority Stress: Minority stress refers to the additional stressors experienced by marginalized groups, such as LGBTQ+ individuals. This includes experiences of discrimination, stigma, harassment, and violence due to their sexual orientation or gender identity. This chronic stress can contribute to increased substance use as a coping mechanism.
• Mental Health: LGBTQ+ individuals are at a higher risk for certain mental health disorders, including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. These mental health conditions can increase the risk of substance use and substance use disorders.
• Social Isolation and Rejection: The process of coming out to family and friends can sometimes result in rejection or loss of social support. This isolation and rejection can increase feelings of loneliness and despair, which may contribute to substance use.
• Internalized Homophobia or Transphobia: Internalized homophobia or transphobia refers to negative feelings, beliefs, and biases about one's own sexual orientation or gender identity. This internalized stigma can lead to lower self-esteem and increased risk of substance abuse.
• Lack of Access to Culturally Competent Healthcare: Many healthcare providers lack training in LGBTQ+ health issues, including substance use disorders, leading to barriers in access to effective, culturally competent treatment.
• Social Environments and Norms: Certain LGBTQ+ social settings, such as bars or clubs, often center around alcohol or other substance use, which may normalize and facilitate substance abuse.
• Trauma: LGBTQ+ individuals experience higher rates of certain types of trauma, such as physical or sexual abuse, hate crimes, or bullying, which can increase the risk of substance use disorders.
