Life with a drinking person is far from every girl's dream. Therefore, many relatives and relatives of an alcoholic try with all their might to bring him back to a full and healthy life without alcohol. But, unfortunately, not everyone succeeds, because most drunks do not want to voluntarily give up this bad habit. Relatives should therefore take all the initiative in their own hands and try to solve the problem on their own. And modern methods of treating alcoholism, which are often carried out without the knowledge of the drunkard, can contribute to this. How to make a person stop drinking? If you are interested in the answer to this question, you need to carefully study the "requirements" of an alcoholic and make the right decision about his treatment.
Dialogue
The first and most correct decision is to calmly talk with a drinking person and ask him to stop drinking alcohol, because every liter of beer or any other drink consumed significantly harms a person's health. If alcohol consumption is associated with problems in the family, with friends or hard work, the drinker will be able to stop drinking alcohol quite quickly, especially if he feels supported by those close to him.
Many drunks understand that any alcoholic beverage consumed, even as a treatment, significantly impairs the functioning of the liver and other organs. However, they are unable to do anything, because the body constantly needs to drink alcohol. If you cannot convince a person, you need to explain to him the dangers of alcohol, the difficult future life and possible health problems due to constant alcohol consumption. Usually, the quality of future life is a big concern for alcoholics, as they are afraid of anything that will interfere with their existence in the future.
It is also worth persuading a drunkard if, after a "stormy feast" the next day, he has a strong intoxication of the body. In this case, the alcoholic will certainly remember all the unpleasant feelings in the morning, especially if they last for a very long time.
Important: people who drink do not always perceive all the information that relatives convey to them at the first time, therefore, having prepared for the conversation, you should take into account a few rules:
- you should not talk with a drunkard until he has completely sobered up and returned to normal - in this case he will not be able to understand the whole truth of your instructions;
- do not force a person to give up a bad habit while he is hungover;
- no need to try to arouse pity and ask the drunkard to stop drinking alcohol, as well as cause scandals, even if the person is sober - this way it will not be possibleto force him to give up the bad habit: conversations should be calm and "gentle";
- you can try to threaten, saying that with constant drinking the drinker will lose family and friends, but in this case you need to be ready to execute such a threat;
- to persuade an alcoholic to stop drinking, you can try to contact a narcologist - if he is successful, the patient can immediately go to the hospital for treatment.
If it was not possible to force him to stop drinking, you can try to make a list of motivations, which will describe all the positive qualities of this business, from restoring health to improving the quality oflife of his family. Such a list might look like this:
- Do something interesting and exciting instead of drinking, which will help you grow and improve.
- Say "no" to alcoholic beverages and earn your children's respect.
- You can quit drinking and save for a vacation trip or anything else unusual.
The reasons for drinking alcohol are different: someone drinks to forget and someone drinks for fun or a hobby. Therefore, if it was not possible to force a person to stop drinking, you need to find out the reasons for his drinking and only then try to cure him.
Take medication or be treated in a clinic
If it was not possible to convince a person to stop drinking with words, you can try to advise the drinker to take special drops or tablets that will help create an aversion to drinks containingalcohol. Modern drugs can quickly form feelings of aversion to alcohol, namely:
- drugs cause an aversion to smell;
- disturbs;
- alcohol taste.
Only a doctor should prescribe pills, which will take into account the state of the body and determine the stage of intoxication of a person.
If the drunk does not want to take medicine, you can mix it with his food and drinks (including alcohol) - after 5 minutes he will feel bad and stop drinking.
Important: Anti-alcohol preparations contain an active ingredient (cyanamide), which prevents the rapid and normal processing of alcohol in the body. This leads to general intoxication, as a result of which alcoholic products cannot be excreted from the body. A person at this time will become so ill that he is unlikely to decide to drink again.
If the patient himself decides to take the pills, he will not want to start drinking alcohol again, because in addition to a strong psychological factor, he will not be allowed to do so by the drug. If an alcoholic wants to stop drinking, he can undergo treatment in a clinic, where doctors will do everything necessary for a speedy recovery. The advantages of this treatment are clear:
- constant monitoring of the patient;
- help restore organs that have been damaged as a result of excessive alcohol consumption;
- important psychological support for a drunk.
How to convince a person to stop drinking using drugs became clear. But if the drinker does not want to take them or he is forbidden to treat them for health reasons, you can seek the help of folk recipes that will help the alcoholic say goodbye to this bad habit.
Folk methods of treating alcoholism
It is important to note that traditional medicine is more effective in this area, since these methods act in the same way on all organisms and have no side effects. To stop drinking, you can take a large amount of medicinal herbal decoctions and teas, drink infusions of fruits, berries, etc. The most famous recipes are:
- You can try to add green bugs to alcohol, which will quickly cause an unpleasant smell and taste, which will lead to early disgust.
- Pepper will help protect a person from alcohol consumption - for this you need to prepare a tincture of red pepper and alcohol in the proportion of 20 grams per 500 ml. Add this mixture drop by drop to alcohol and the person will immediately refuse it.
- If these methods do not help, you can let a person inhale birch smoke, which can cause a strong aversion to alcohol-containing products.
In most cases, these methods help to quickly overcome cravings for alcohol, but in order to be more confident in the quality of treatment, the patient himself must want to stop drinking.
