Alcohol is an integral part of the society we live in, but it also has a shadow side. It is not unusual for consumption to take over and become a definite abuse. Although such problems can be difficult to talk about, free alcohol treatment is available in Copenhagen as well as in other parts of the country.

But who is really affected by alcoholism? And can young people also become addicts?

Alcoholism can affect anyone, young or old

Alcohol is very prevalent among young people and is often associated with partying and colors. But it is a fact that the party can sometimes get a little too long and lose control over its alcohol intake.

Thus, treatment of alcoholism is not just for the beer drinker on the street, it is a treatment that many people may need regardless of age or social status.

Although alcoholism is a taboo in some circles, one should not try to hide one's abuse from the outside world as it can have major consequences. In the worst case, an abuse can lead to mental and physical disorders that can reduce one's quality of life.

But why do you become an addict?

It is difficult to say exactly what triggers alcoholism and this can vary from person to person. But if you start treatment for its abuse, then therapists and therapists will often try to help you with any personal problems you are facing.

It is therefore important that, as an addict, you get help to find the root of your problems and thus also the reason why alcohol consumption has taken over.

Of course, what kind of help you get depends on how bad it is and how urgently you need the help. But the treatment will often start with an investigative interview and an expectation match with a knowledgeable professional.
