We can provide you with a personalised treatment plan to help stop your alcohol or drug problems.
Residential Rehab Centres are one of the most effective ways of treating alcohol addiction.
An alcohol rehab clinic is where a person experiencing an alcohol use disorder may go to receive treatment. Depending on how serious the addiction is, medical detoxification could be required.
There are a number of support groups available to alcoholics. These can be offered both in and out of rehab. If you think you have an alcohol abuse problem, you may want to think about going to a group session.
Alcohol Anonymous is a fellowship of people who come together to solve their drinking problem.
Attending an A.A. Meeting is completely free, there are no age or education requirements to participate.
Alcoholics Anonymous Membership is open to anyone who wants to stop drinking completely or stop being dependent on alcohol.
When you are receiving treatment, our addiction specialists offer free family support to ensure we carry out all treatment lengths. Family support can be carried out as part of an outpatient treatment programme. It is a great way to help fix relationships and improve confidence.
We have found that over the years many of our patients would prefer to be treated at home if this is a possibility. A detox is usually accompanied by some sort of medication, and then followed by therapy. The main goal of detoxification is to cleanse the body of the addictive substance while also managing the alcohol withdrawal symptoms.
There is a wide variety of medications used for alcohol dependence in Wells, listed below are some of the most common medications:
Acamprosate is a medication used along with counselling to treat alcohol use disorder. Acamprosate is thought to stabilise chemical signalling in the brain that would otherwise be disrupted by alcohol withdrawals.
Disulfiram is a medication that is used to support the treatment of alcoholism. It causes unpleasant effects when even the smallest of alcohol is consumed. Some of the effects include flushing of the face, chest pain, blurred vision and anxiety.
Naltrexone is a synthetic drug which is similar to morphine, it blocks opiate receptors in the nervous system and is most commonly used in the treatment of heroin addiction.
Nalmefene is an opioid antagonist medication used to help manage opioid overdose and alcohol dependence. Nalmefene works by antagonising receptors in the brain responsible for producing the body’s feel-good chemical which is dopamine.
The basic premise of the 12-step model is that people can help one another achieve and maintain abstinence from the substances or behaviours to which they are addicted to.
A single treatment may work for one person, but may not work for someone else. By carrying out the right treatment for you, it is more likely you will recover.
There are a wide variety of behavioural therapies that we offer, listed below you can expect to find them and also some information about each one.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a psycho social intervention that aims to reduce symptoms of various mental health conditions, the common ones being depression and anxiety disorders. These types of disorders can increase the likelihood of alcohol use.
This is one of the more popular addiction treatment options that we offer. Mental health issues have become less taboo so young teens both men and women don’t feel ashamed to talk about their mental health or alcohol problems.
Interventions are a very common way of combating alcohol addiction, when a group of family or friends come together with mutual concern for the patient.
Our main aim during interventions is meeting with an alcoholic and helping them recognise the problem and presenting them with an opportunity to make a change.
Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) is a more short term technique that we offer, it is commonly used in the treatment of alcohol and substance abuse. MET treatment aims to help people feel more motivated to change their destructive and harmful behaviour.
Marital and Family Therapy (MFT) is a very popular form of psychotherapy that we can offer to our clients, the sessions address the behaviour of all family members and show how the behaviour can affect each individual.
MFT may also be referred to as couple counselling, marriage counselling or family counselling.
Alcohol addiction is a relapsing disorder associated with excessive alcohol consumption or the loss of control of the amount you intake.

There are many risks to alcohol addiction in Wells, below you can see a list of the most common ones we have come across:
Alcohol affects the part of your brain that controls inhibition, so you may feel relaxed, less anxious, and more confident after a drink.
The chemicals in alcohol can change your brain and can soon lead to more negative feelings. These feelings could consist of anger, depression, and anxiety completely regardless of your mood.
Alcohol addiction in a romantic relationship can have severe effects on both partners, their children and other family members. Alcohol destroys many romantic relationships, results in estranged marriages and can cause conflicts between families.
The link between both debt and alcohol addiction can be seen on a national scale. Alcohol addiction can promote poor spending habits that could impact your ability to save and pay bills.
Alcohol can lead to absence from School/Work, and this can happen for a variety of reasons such as being out late the night before or even having a hangover. It can often be the case that alcohol can leave the student too tired or unwell to give their best work.
Alcohol addiction massively increases the likeliness of major injuries such as motor vehicle crashes, falls, drowning and even burns.
Alcohol addiction can also be a gateway to other addictions in Wells. It is common for people who are suffering from alcoholism will also abuse other drugs or feel tempted to.

Heavy drinking can cause various health problems including:
There are a number of different types of alcoholics which can be seen below.
Research shows that roughly 31.5% of alcoholics actually fall into the category of young adults, this being the largest single group.
Roughly 21.1% of alcoholics fall into the young antisocial subtype. This specific ground tends to start drinking at the youngest age of around 15 and can develop alcohol dependence at the earliest age of 18.
Functional Subtype often referred to as Functional Alcoholics which makes up 19.5% of alcoholics, this is the group you would expect to have relationships and jobs.
The intermediate familial subtype accounts for around 18.8% of alcoholics. This subtype tends to start drinking around age 17 and develop alcohol dependency at around 32.
The Chronic Severe Subtype makes up around 9.2% of alcoholics. This group tends to start drinking at a young age of around 15 but usually develops alcohol dependency at an age of around 29.
The most effective treatment for alcohol dependence is residential treatment.
This is an intensive treatment process for stopping drinking. It is the most effective method because clients are sure to get the right support to help them stay sober.
In regards to medication, the most effective is Naltrexone, which is a drug that blocks the good feelings that alcohol causes, this can prevent heavy drinking and reduce the urge to drink.
Acamprosate may help you combat alcohol cravings once you stop drinking, unlike disulfiram, naltrexone and acamprosate don’t make you feel sick or ill after taking a drink.
Our addiction specialists in Wells can prescribe medication in rehab if necessary.
The NIAAA defines heavy drinking as the following; for men consuming more than 4 alcoholic drinks on any day or more than 14 drinks per week. For women, consuming more than 3 drinks on any day or more than 7 drinks per week is classed as heavy drinking.
A study has shown that roughly 59% of people who finish and complete treatment leave in a much better place then when they went in.
However getting the data of the succession rate for alcohol rehab is a bit of a challenge, as there is no standardised way to measure treatment success.
Both Alcoholism and Problem drinking can have detrimental effects, the main difference between the two is problem drinkers aren’t physically dependent on alcohol whereas alcoholics are.
There are many things that you can say to an alcoholic in denial, listed below are some of the most common things we would suggest:
Denial is a quite common symptom of a struggling addict. If a friend or family member is struggling with drug and alcohol problems, please make sure to contact us for further information and support.
From a legal standpoint, you can’t force someone who is over the age of 18 into a rehab programme.
If your child is under 18, as their legal guardian you can make the decision for them.
As for adults over 18, the decision has to be theirs and theirs alone, as such there is no way to get them into drug rehab against their will.
You can get funding for alcohol rehab.
You can get free rehab services from the NHS, however these often have long wait times.
We understand that alcohol rehab can be a terrifying decision, we also know that private rehab can be very costly.
