Tanya's dad used to work in the North, and then he fell ill, and when his wife died, he felt that his daughter had lost her temper. He believes that it is better when the daughter drinks at home than somewhere else. During the program, it turned out that in the house where Tanya lives, many regularly drink. The studio met Tanya's dad with a negative. The same reaction was on the program Let them talk - Parents are stoned. Even in the orphanage, the girl will have better conditions than at home. Tanya refused this offer, and then it turned out that she has a grandmother in Germany, but no one wants to deal with an alcoholic. Relatives are sure that Tanya and her father regularly steal and do not show any initiative to get rid of alcoholism.

They tried to treat Tanya forcibly twice, but, apparently, there were no positive results. An acquaintance called her a "prostitute" because of the girl's relevant connections. Victor first helped Tatyana and her father, but he constantly observed a huge amount of alcohol in their apartment and realized that it was impossible to help them. They talked about alcoholism in the program Let them talk - At the bottom of the glass. The representative of the social protection of Omsk reports that Tanya's parents did not work, the apartment was in an unsanitary condition, the child does not attend school, he was often seen drinking alcohol and smoking, and Tanya was repeatedly seen in the company of young people who lead an asocial lifestyle.

Is Tanya ready to recover from alcoholism

Tatyana is afraid to start treatment, as the doctors have already treated her cruelly. Nikita Lushnikov, head of the charity center, offered her free rehabilitation. Tanya refused and a woman with alcohol addiction approached her, who told her how hard it was for her and that the young girl still had many chances to live a healthy life. Nikita explained that his center was not an orphanage, and if she didn't like it, she could always leave it. Tanya was also offered rehabilitation by another young girl who drank and used drugs at the same time. At one point, it seemed that Tanya could be persuaded, but at the end of the program she flatly refused to be treated and undergo rehabilitation. This issue of Let Them Talk should be an example for all parents who have a responsibility to monitor what is happening in their children's lives and prevent addiction from developing to the point where it is no longer possible to take any action.

I’ve been drinking for 10 years since my husband left, now I’m 43, I don’t see the point in quitting, probably the point of no return has already been passed, but I want to stop, maybe you can advise something ...

Human possibilities are greater than you can imagine. And these are not empty words.

If you, having a ten-year experience of alcohol addiction, nevertheless, say that you want to stop, then there are chances.

One of the serious difficulties of dealing with any drug addiction is that it is both a physiological and psychological problem. But this complexity, with a skillful approach, can also be used as a lifeline. No matter how accustomed your body is to regular intake of doses of alcohol, the so-called "point of no return" that you speak of is in your head. And therefore, only you decide whether it is passed or not.

Here are a couple of motivating factors that can really be used by you in the fight against the disease:

Our regular reader shared an effective method that saved her husband from ALCOHOLISM. It seemed that nothing would help, there were several codings, treatment at the dispensary, nothing helped. An effective method recommended by Elena Malysheva helped. ACTIVE METHOD

  • Your problem is solved. The only question is at what cost. There are many examples of this.
  • With each lost day, the chances of recovery decrease, and the amount of effort required for this increases. Therefore, there is simply no point in delaying.

Get started. No fuss, but confident. Go see a psychologist. Don't expect him to do something for you. However, if you feel the desire to change your life, but lack self-confidence and a systematic approach, then a specialist can provide real help.

Ecology of Consciousness: Psychology. I was surprised to rediscover that it is not only beer that quenches thirst in the heat. But also water. Or Airan. That my favorite crayfish can be eaten with tomato juice. Or just eat. That the mood increases communication with good people. And sports can tone the body.

Today marks 10 years since I stopped drinking. Completely and irrevocably renounced the use of alcohol in any of its forms (with the possible exception of alcohol solutions of medicines) and for any reason.

And 10 years is a symbolic term. And so it draws to sum up. Hit the balance. And decide on the advisability of further following the chosen path.

I'm on my second decade

Then, a decade ago, I did not think that I could hold out for so long. Moreover, at that time, it seemed to me, there was no obvious reason to do this. I was not killed by a disease progressing from alcohol. I was not threatened with dismissal if traces of his presence were found in the blood. My family did not fall apart, and my relatives did not set ultimatums. Moreover, the decision to stop the overwhelming majority of acquaintances was bewildering: “So you don’t seem to drink like that anyway!”.

Yes, I didn't. But he drank from time to time. Either relaxing with a bottle of beer, or improving your mood with a glass of vodka, or raising the tone of the body with a glass of cognac. Didn't thump. But now, after 10 years, having received knowledge on the psychology of addictive behavior, I understand that I was already addicted. And over the years, I would come closer and closer to the line beyond which independent refusal would be almost impossible.

Fortunately, I got lucky. One fine evening, a day after another libation my friend and I watched an anti-alcohol video professor Zhdanov (a rather manipulative and deliberately nightmarish lecture, to be honest, but for this the author doesn’t care: “Thank you.” And we decided to quit.

Lucky - because I had to do it not alone, but with him. With a person whom I used to envy and with whom I used to compete. This gave me additional motivation - I wanted to be stronger than him. To prove to him and others that my will is stronger. At least for one day.

“Now, if he turns out to be weaker and will be the first to take a strong drink, then I, most likely, will refuse such an“ unnecessarily harsh ”promise,” I thought semiconsciously.

But he, too, was dumb to do it before me.

That's how we got through the first year. Then the second. And after that - let go.

I no longer wanted to relax with alcohol. Personally, I found other ways. And those around me suddenly, as if by magic, lost interest in my soldering. Now, to the words that I don’t drink, they stopped reacting with surprise and obsessive offers to pay for the most expensive cognac, but simply poured themselves. So after the second year of abstinence, staying sober was pretty easy.

Besides that, I I was surprised to rediscover that it is not only beer that quenches thirst in the heat. But also water. Or Airan. That my favorite crayfish can be eaten with tomato juice. Or just eat. That the mood increases communication with good people. And sports can tone the body.

All achievements - family, business, wealth, sports, success in psychological practice, and so on - are in some way the consequences of this decision too.

But if, after 7 years of abstinence from alcohol, I claimed that I stopped drinking not because I had the prospect of getting drunk, now I think - that's why.

Was. And it remains.

Therefore, I go to the second ten.

A few years ago, energy drinks came into fashion. Funny advertising, attractive packaging design, tempting name - all this contributes to the growth in popularity of these drinks. You often see young people with a bright jar in their hand, or even 8-10 year old children sipping energy drinks. In most cases, parents are not even interested and sometimes are not aware that their children consume energy drinks. And if they are aware, then - “What is it? Let him drink. It's not vodka."

Yes, an energy drink is not vodka, but that doesn't mean it's safe. On the label, the composition of an energy drink may look like “caffeine, taurine, glucose, B vitamins.” So what? - everything is natural, natural, and vitamins are generally good - why not drink? In order to find out all the ins and outs of energy drinks, you need to understand what the main components of these drinks are.

sucrose and glucose give the drink a sweet, attractive taste. Sucrose is an ordinary sugar (disaccharide), glucose is a monosaccharide that takes the most active part in metabolism. By the way, sucrose, which is more complex in its structure, is broken down in the body, incl. for glucose.

Caffeine- a well-known psychostimulant. By its structure, it is an alkaloid found in tea, coffee, guarana, kola nuts and many other plants. However, more often it is synthesized chemically. Caffeine relieves the feeling of fatigue, gives vigor, increases efficiency (especially mental), speeds up the pulse and increases blood pressure. The invigorating effect of caffeine lasts about 3 hours. Large doses lead to the depletion of nerve cells. Caffeine affects the heart muscle, increasing its contractions, so after the use of caffeine, pressure can “jump”. Some people experience heart pain while taking caffeine. Also, many note that after taking caffeine, at first they felt good, but after a while the condition was much worse than before (the period for removing caffeine is long, repeated use can cause an overdose). There is a desire to drink the energy drink again. All this leads to a rapidly developing addiction to caffeine - caffeinism.

Side effects of caffeine - insomnia, irritability and excitability, high blood pressure, arrhythmias.

Theobromine- in structure, a substance similar to caffeine, has a weaker effect in comparison with it. Extracted from cocoa.

Taurine- a substance derived from the amino acid cysteine. Synthesized in the human body, found in food. In medicine, it is used as part of eye drops. Taurine itself is necessary for the proper functioning of the nervous, immune systems, regulates the metabolism of fats, calcium. The "invigorating" ability of taurine has been studied in mice, but not in humans. The use of large doses of taurine has not been described.

Glucuronolactone- a substance obtained in the process of converting glucose in the body. According to the available data, it does not have a psychostimulating effect. In energy drinks, this substance is contained in a dose that exceeds the normal daily production by 250-500 times. The effect of such huge doses has also not been studied.

L-carnitine- a substance obtained by the interaction of the amino acids lysine and methionine. In medicine, it is used for nervous and physical exhaustion, anorexia, after serious illnesses (heart attack, stroke). A normal healthy body does not feel the need for an additional intake of L-carnitine. The effect of this substance in high doses has also not been studied.

B vitamins are necessary for the proper functioning of the nervous system. By themselves, they do not have a psychostimulating effect. They often cause allergic reactions.

Guarana- a natural psychostimulant. It contains many organic substances, the main of which is caffeine. By the way, a synonym for caffeine is guaranine.

Ginseng- a natural stimulant. Designed to help fight fatigue, increase efficiency. Side effects are similar to caffeine.

Also in the composition of dyes, flavors, preservatives, flavor enhancers and other substances that accompany sweet drinks.

So, the action of the energy drink is that it does not give energy from the outside, but forces the cells of our body to give the last. There is a kind of deception: a person is filled with energy, it seems to him that he can move mountains, but in fact his state is approaching exhaustion. And if the child drank the energy drink? In the world, several deaths are recorded annually, which are associated precisely with the use of energy drinks. But not a single manufacturer has been punished yet: after all, people use energy drinks of their own free will, as it is supposed, having weighed all the pros and cons.

In some European countries, in particular, in Denmark and Norway, energy drinks are classified as medicines and you can buy them only in a pharmacy. Recently, Russia has also been thinking about this, the State Duma is considering the issue of classifying energy drinks, if not drugs, then alcohol.

This information is quite enough to understand: an energy drink is not just a tasty water. It is a stimulant, and quite powerful. But not only that. The action of many components that make up these drinks in huge doses is simply not studied.

You can't just drink an energy drink whenever you want. You can't drink it every day. It should not be drunk by persons under 18 years old (!) - it is important for parents to remember this. At risk are also the elderly, hypertensive patients, pregnant women, people with increased excitability, those who suffer from insomnia, disorders of the cardiovascular system and those who are allergic to B vitamins.

The main danger lies in the effect that the energy drink has on the body. From this point of view, herbal energy drinks, often touted by manufacturers as completely natural and completely safe, are no different from those that contain chemicals. They act on a person in exactly the same way - by the method of a whip.

Caring parents not only do not buy energy drinks for their children themselves, but also explain what their use can lead to so that their children do not succumb to temptations and do not buy them with pocket money. Of course, sometimes it is difficult to give in to a whining child, especially under the pressure of the arguments “But Vasya is bought and nothing.” However, the issue of consumption of energy drinks is one of those issues that require integrity, exactly the same as smoking and drinking alcohol.
