Alcohol Addiction

Helping Union Workers Overcome Alcohol Addiction

Alcohol addiction is a serious issue among union workers, often fueled by high-stress environments, demanding schedules, and the need to stay productive. Many turn to alcohol as a way to cope, but over time, this can lead to dependency, health complications, and strained relationships. At Union Recovery Services, we offer specialized treatment programs tailored to union members, providing the support needed to overcome alcohol addiction while safeguarding their jobs, benefits, and overall well-being. Our goal is to help workers regain control of their lives and build a healthier, more sustainable future.

Understanding Alcohol Addiction

Alcohol is a depressant that affects the central nervous system, slowing down brain function and impairing judgment, coordination, and reaction time. While many union workers use alcohol to unwind after long shifts, prolonged or excessive consumption can lead to dependence, making it difficult to function without drinking. Over time, alcohol addiction can result in severe consequences, including:

– Increased tolerance and physical dependence

– Mood swings, depression, and anxiety

– Disrupted sleep patterns and chronic fatigue

– Liver damage, heart disease, and high blood pressure

– Decreased job performance and increased absenteeism

Recognizing the risks early and seeking support can make all the difference.
