Alcohol causes more than just trouble for the person drinking, especially when they are using for long time. Addiction can negatively affect their family life causing fights and misunderstanding between them.
Families of people affected by alcohol misuse often struggle to create strong emotional bonds, even within their family unit. People battling alcoholism tend to lie about their condition, minimizing its effect on the family. This destroys trust and makes it difficult for other family members to build strong relationships with the individual.
Battle with alcoholism affects the physical and mental health of most members of the family. The individual fighting addiction will deal with physical health issues because of the impact of excessive alcohol consumption. Some common problems include liver disease, digestive system problems, damage to the brain, and risk for stroke. Mental health problems are also a risk for these families. The anxiety and stress of alcoholism for a family will wear down the emotional health of all involved. Family members of those fighting alcoholism may also struggle with guilt and feelings that they somehow are the cause of their loved one’s disorder.
