In 2018, approximately 14.8 million Americans ages 12 and older had an alcohol use disorder. Despite the prevalence of this condition, there is still an unfair stigma around alcohol addiction – a stigma that stops many people from getting treatment.
Defeating Denial
Many people who are battling alcoholism underestimate the amount they drink or the seriousness of their problem or overestimate their ability to quit drinking. Those around them sometimes deny the problem, as well, because they are uncomfortable with the reality of the situation or unsure of how to address it properly.
During April, public health organizations across the United States fight this denial with educational efforts and awareness campaigns on social media and traditional platforms.
Resources shared in April can make it easier for those who are struggling to find help and treatment centers. These resources also teach friends, families, and communities how to cope with their loved one’s disease and provide care and support when needed.
