Alcohol Addiction
In Kenya, alcohol is a substance that is both legal and widely available. Many individuals underestimate the harmful repercussions linked with alcohol because of how easily accessible it is to the general population. Even though many people can occasionally indulge in alcohol without it harming their lives, alcoholism is a problem that affects millions of people every year. Once an alcohol dependence has developed, it is frequently necessary for a person to receive professional assistance to recover from this potentially fatal condition.
Obsessive cravings, excessive and binge drinking, withdrawal, and continuing usage despite unfavourable effects are how alcoholism is typically described. Problems with one’s bodily and mental health, interpersonal relationships, and loss of work are a few examples of these repercussions.

The Benefits of Alcoholism Treatment
Alcoholism can have several harmful health implications if it is not managed. Excessive drinking hurts the heart and the cardiovascular system as a whole, leading to issues including high blood pressure, cardiomyopathy, and cardiac arrhythmia. These issues can trigger major, irreversible health consequences if they are allowed to worsen.
The liver breaks down alcohol, which presents a special risk to such a crucial organ. Health disorders such as fatty liver, cirrhosis, fibrosis, and alcoholic hepatitis are frequently acquired by long-term alcoholics. Also, research has shown that drinking too much alcohol increases the risk of developing some cancers and can lead to pancreatitis, a serious inflammatory illness of the pancreas.
