Rehab Sheds Light on Alcoholism and Verbal Abuse

As a facility that works to meet clients where they are, backed by trained staff who personally understand the recovery process, local rehab center Wolf Creek Recovery’s blog seeks to pass their knowledge onto the community. Touching on the ties between alcoholism and verbal abuse, the recovery center, located in Prescott, Arizona, aims to help their community have a better understanding of alcohol use disorders. With this blog, they aim to further lower the stigma surrounding alcohol use while also highlighting the signs that may be indicative of someone needing treatment.

To start off the piece, Wolf Creek Recovery sheds light on why this topic is so important for their community specifically. “Arizona has some of the highest rates of domestic violence deaths. In 2022, 101 people were killed due to domestic violence in our state. However, physical violence doesn’t typically start out of nowhere. There is a pattern that happens, and it usually begins with verbal abuse.”

The topic of abuse is very complex, and Wolf Creek Recovery understands that. They truly showcase their knowledge on the topic as they address it in a tactful and straightforward manner. They clearly lay out the facts regarding what is and isn’t defined as verbal abuse so that the reader is on the same page as they continue into their piece.

From there, they begin to explain how alcohol use can tie into verbal abuse. “The link between alcohol use disorder (AUD) and verbal abuse is complex and involves psychological, social, and physiological factors. Alcohol is a depressant that slows the brain and reduces inhibitions, causing common side effects like slurred speech, stumbling, and mood and behavior changes. When you drink alcohol, parts of your brain responsible for managing anger are suppressed, making negative emotions more likely to bubble or surface.”

“It can be difficult to understand why someone would verbally hurt the people they love most,” the rehab center continues, “but alcohol can cause physical, psychological, and social changes in a person. While these changes are not an excuse for poor behavior, it can help to understand the complex dynamics of AUD and how it impacts relationships.”

The reader may have questions, next, about how these two stay so deeply intertwined. Wolf Creek Recovery takes its time in explaining how the cycle of abuse and alcohol use can become intermingled. “Alcohol can be a catalyst for abusive behavior. Understanding the relationship between consuming alcohol and acting abusively can help individuals recognize the signs, prevent abuse, and seek appropriate treatment and support. However, because of the cycle of abuse, it’s not always easy for people to recognize what’s happening, at least at first. The person who is drinking may blame their actions on other factors, while the person who is receiving the abuse may make excuses for their loved one, believing they will change.”

They clearly lay out, in their blog post, what signs individuals can look for to better identify abuse in loved ones or in their own relationships. They also provide resources both for people seeking to escape abuse and those seeking healing from alcohol use disorders. To learn more, check out the blog post linked at the top of the piece.

Wolf Creek Recovery is located in Prescott, Arizona, and they treat all substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The staff are in recovery themselves, so they know how to meet people in need where they are. This enables them to deliver the best-customized care possible, with outdoor adventure therapy and extended, long-term inpatient programs as options.
