ARTICLES

Signs of a Drug or Alcohol Problem

Use of drugs or alcohol in the face of adverse consequences in significant life areas is a good rule of thumb to use in determining the presence, or not, of a drug or alcohol problem. Here are some more indicators: Indicators

Alcoholism Definition
Here is a comprehensive definition of alcoholism: Definition

Definition of Addiction and Dependence

The words used to talk about drug and alcohol problems are confusing. Here is an overview of the terms used: Addiction and Dependence

Adult Children of Alcoholics
Persons raised in a home where there is alcoholism in a parent tend to develop defense mechanisms or behaviors that protect them from being hurt. These defenses can become maladaptive in adulthood. This article describes some of the traits that these "adult children" may have that prevent them from being all they can be: ACOA Traits


Twelve Step Programs

AA and NA
Meetings are designated as OPEN or CLOSED in the meetings directories that can be found at these web sites: Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. AA and NA are free resources for anyone struggling with an alcohol or drug problem: OPEN meetings are for anyone interested; CLOSED meetings are for persons who have self-diagnosed they have a problem.

Click here for help online from Jan Williams, a licensed counselor.

Al-Anon and Nar-Anon
These groups are for those in a significant relationship with an alcoholic, Al-Anon, or addict, Nar-Anon. Go here for more family information

Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOAs)
Individuals who grow up in a home where a parent(s) is suffering from the disease of alcoholism or drug addiction tend to develop behaviors and defenses to protect themselves from emotional and sometimes physical hurts that result from the parents' preoccupation with the effects of addiction. These behaviors and defenses may in adulthood cause these "adult children" negative consequences especially in relationships. This web site provides information about these issues and location of Twelve Step meetings for ACOAs: Adult Children of Alcoholics.
