Question: Ivan, how to treat female alcoholism? Answer: here it is worth starting with the fact that in the professional community there is no consensus and answer to this question. Therefore, if you have already looked for the answer to this question on the Internet, you must have encountered different sources of information and opposing positions regarding the differences between female and male alcoholism. The traditional binary gender system distinguishes two opposites - man and woman. It is on this basis that many hypotheses were born, according to which the development, course, consequences and treatment of alcoholism depend on gender. I propose to move a little away from scientific terms and talk about this in simple language. I often counseled people when I worked in a drug treatment center, so I studied a lot of scientific materials and got used to using them in everyday life. But our task for today is to ensure that absolutely everyone understands this issue. I understand that most of my readers are relatives of addicted people who want to help. But I want you to understand that when I give everyday examples from life and use the simplest possible words, this does not mean that I lack competence or that I am not serious about answering your question. Any addiction is a complex problem, so sometimes it is very useful to defuse the situation and move away from scientific terms. As for our project, we believe that there are no obvious differences between female alcoholism and male alcoholism, at least in its course and treatment. The only difference may be the consequences for the body. We are confident that the formation of any chemical dependence occurs at two levels - psychological and mental. Thus, when a person has a desire to get certain emotions, feelings, but he does not know how to achieve this in healthy ways, he begins to use alcohol or drugs, which help him to be transported to an unreal world where he feels good and comfortable. that's a paradox. Although women themselves are more emotional, they show more patience in treatment than men, and therefore more often achieve effective results. Therefore, do not lose hope if your loved one or relative is faced with such a problem. On the official website community7h.ru you can find a whole list of high-quality rehabilitation centers that operate effective and proven alcoholism treatment programs at affordable prices. The same principle works with women. If she cannot solve her problems on her own, is in a depressed psychological and emotional state, perhaps even depressed, then she may begin to have problems with alcohol. And you can find out the true reasons why a woman started drinking alcohol only by working with a psychotherapist. When a person just starts drinking, it seems to him that alcohol actually helps solve problems. But over time it becomes clear that you need to pay twice for it. Not only have the old problems not gone away and not been resolved, new ones are being added to them, and the situation is only getting worse. The brain of any person, be it a man or a woman, cannot predict harmful and negative consequences in the long term. Therefore, if a person is addicted to alcohol, then he begins to suffer and he can no longer stop. Now regarding the treatment of female alcoholism. I’ll start with the main thing - the treatment of alcoholism should be carried out exclusively by qualified specialists: psychologists, narcologists, psychotherapists and addictologists. If you want to help a woman cope with alcoholism and you are not indifferent to her fate, then below I will describe 6 steps that you should follow. It is important to create a competent model of behavior in relationships with an addict. This means that there is no need to judge a woman, blame her for something and deliberately cause her a feeling of shame. If a woman became an alcoholic, then at a certain point in her life she could not cope with!
