One definition of an alcoholic is that it's a person who refuses to admit that they have a drinking problem despite evidence that indicates otherwise. With a 12 Hour Alcohol Awareness Class, you may be able to break down this denial. That is, if you are ready to face the music, this class will get you started. Alcoholism is unlike many other diseases in that its successful treatment is almost entirely based on the patient's willingness to get better. Can you imagine if you told someone with cancer that they can dramatically improve their chances of living just by being willing to get better? With alcoholism though, the denial of the problem is often its most deadly symptom. Instead of admitting that there's a problem a person will go on making excuses of why they got the DUI or why they missed work until one day their drinking leads them to an early grave. Taking an online class is a good way to approach the issue because you can take them privately at home. You can start out quietly and at your own pace, scrolling through the material. You will learn all about how the alcohol is hurting your body, mind and those around you. It's enough to get you thinking more long-term. The classes also give you current and accurate skills to use to help you control the urge and redirect the behavior. Dealing with alcoholism is a lifelong commitment. Taking an online alcohol awareness class is a good place to start.
