Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment

What are the symptoms of alcoholism?

Alcoholism, also known as Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), is a chronic condition characterized by an inability to control alcohol consumption despite adverse consequences. The symptoms of alcoholism can vary among individuals but typically include a combination of physical, psychological, and behavioral signs. Some common symptoms include:

• Increased tolerance: A need for increasing amounts of alcohol to achieve the same desired effect, or experiencing diminished effects with continued use of the same amount.
• Withdrawal symptoms: Experiencing physical and psychological symptoms when not drinking, such as tremors, sweating, nausea, anxiety, irritability, or insomnia.
• Loss of control: An inability to limit alcohol consumption, often drinking more or for a longer period than intended.
• Neglect of responsibilities: Failing to fulfill work, school, or family obligations due to alcohol use.
• Social isolation: Withdrawing from social activities or hobbies once enjoyed, in favor of drinking.
• Continued use despite consequences: Continuing to consume alcohol despite negative consequences, such as relationship problems, health issues, or legal troubles.
• Cravings: Experiencing strong urges or cravings to drink alcohol.
• Unsuccessful attempts to quit: Repeated attempts to cut down or quit drinking, without success.
• Risky behavior: Engaging in risky behaviors while under the influence of alcohol, such as driving, operating machinery, or engaging in unprotected sex.
• Time spent on alcohol: Spending a significant amount of time obtaining, consuming, or recovering from the effects of alcohol.
• Physical dependence: Developing a physiological reliance on alcohol, leading to withdrawal symptoms when alcohol consumption is reduced or stopped.
• Neglect of self-care: Neglecting personal hygiene, nutrition, or overall well-being as a result of alcohol use.

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.

Do addicts lie to themselves?

Yes, it is quite common for individuals struggling with addiction to lie to themselves, a phenomenon often referred to as denial. Denial is a psychological defense mechanism that helps a person avoid confronting painful realities, emotions, or actions that they may not be prepared to handle.

In the context of addiction, an individual might convince themselves that they have their drug or alcohol use under control, that they can stop anytime they want, or that their substance use is not impacting their life negatively. They may downplay the quantity of substance consumed, the frequency of their use, or the resulting consequences. This self-deception can serve to protect them from the guilt, shame, or fear that might arise from acknowledging the full extent of their addiction.

Here are some common forms of self-deception seen in addiction:

• Minimization: Downplaying the severity or consequences of their substance use.
• Rationalization: Creating explanations or excuses to justify their drug or alcohol use.
• Blaming: Attributing their substance use or related problems to external factors or other people.
• Diversion: Changing the topic or focus to avoid discussing their substance use.

Denial and self-deception can make it hard for people struggling with addiction to seek help or fully engage in treatment, as they may not fully acknowledge that they have a problem. This is why interventions, carried out with love, understanding, and professional guidance, can be essential in helping individuals recognize the reality of their addiction and take the necessary steps towards recovery.

However, it's crucial to remember that lying and self-deception are not moral failings but symptoms of the disease of addiction. Professional help and compassionate support from loved ones can help individuals break through their denial and embark on the path to recovery.
