Neurological dangers from drinking alcohol include impaired vision and impaired motor coordination, memory defects, hallucinations, blackouts, and seizures.
Denial is perhaps the hugest obstacle to getting help for alcoholism; the desire to drink can be so strong that the mind finds a way to rationalize drinking. Denial exacerbates alcohol related problems by keeping the individual from looking honestly at the negative effects of their drinking behavior.
Studies have shown that women who consume three alcoholic drinks per week in their first trimester of pregnancy are more than twice as likely as nondrinkers to have a miscarriage.
The type of treatment one receives for their alcohol dependence problems depends on the severity of their alcohol problem and the resources that are available in their community. Treatment may include detoxification (the process of safely getting alcohol out of your system); taking doctor-prescribed medications, such as disulfiram (Antabuse�') or naltrexone (ReVia), to help prevent a return (or relapse) to drinking once drinking has stopped; and individual and/or group counseling.
