Teresa was a thirty-eight-year-old floral designer who realized that she had some problems with her drinking. For instance, within the past seven months she has felt the need to have more than a few drinks before going to work, two weeks ago she tested positive for a breathalyzer test at her place of employment, seven weeks ago she got pulled over by the state highway patrol for “driving under the influence”, and finally, for the past three months she has started to forget what she says and does when she drinks with her pals.

Not unlike other drinkers, Teresa’s experiences with alcohol began little by little and continued at this level of involvement for quite a long time because from time to time she engaged in intermittent social drinking. If truth be told, for approximately two years, every time she went out with her coworkers to drink, she made sure to drink in a responsible manner. Something about her drinking situation, however, seemed to fundamentally change when she divorced her husband.

So She Can Recover From the Breakup of Her Husband In a less Painful manner, Teresa Made Up Her Mind To Begin Palling Around More Often With Some of Her Buddies Who Love to ”Get Down” and Drink

Teresa got awfully gloomy about the divorce from her husband, and as a way to refrain from obsessing about her negative feelings she came to a decision that she would start hanging out more repeatedly with some of her friends who love to drink.

Quite sincerely, Teresa thought that having fun nearly every day by partying and drinking with her friends would help her rise above the divorce of her husband in a more pain free manner.

Teresa’s Drinking Escalates Substantially the More Often She Goes to Family Get-Togethers, Private Parties, Sporting Events, Happy Hours, and Dinner Dates With Her Friends

It didn’t take too long, nevertheless, before her drinking escalated significantly the more frequently she went to and drank at happy hours, sporting events, dinner dates, private parties, and family get-togethers with her pals. Not only this, but the fact that her drinking buddies were all quite a bit younger than she was and therefore able to drink and party harder and more frequently was one of the reasons why she didn’t direct more of her attention to her increased drinking. In a word, she was having a great time drinking just like everyone else in her group of buddies without much forethought about the negative consequences of her drinking behavior.

Yet in the back of her mind she knew that she probably needed alcohol treatment but stayed away from the thought as much as humanly possible.

Teresa Gets a Physical Examination, Owns up to the Truth About Her Excessive and Abusive Drinking to Her Healthcare Practitioner, and Acknowledges Her Depression

One morning during her six-month physical exam, her physician asked her if she drank alcohol. Not wanting to tell “stories” to her physician, Teresa admitted that she regularly drinks more than she should. In truth, she stated that she frequently drinks in an abusive and excessive manner. Then Teresa informed her healthcare practitioner about her depression. More precisely, she mentioned that shattered relationships often sparked a discouraging chain of events typified by increased drinking which further led to more discouraging feelings that, in turn, led to even more drinking. And this is explicitly what took place when her husband and she got divorced seven months ago.

When her healthcare practitioner heard this, he told Teresa that according to various alcoholism facts and statistics on alcoholism he was investigating, alcoholism and depression often occur in the same person. He then informed Teresa that some of the alcohol statistics, research investigations, and facts he has been reading about also underscore the fact that people who drink in an excessive and hazardous manner and who also experience depression need to get treatment for both medical conditions.

Teresa’s Doctor Schedules an Appointment for a Psychological Appraisal and For an Alcohol Dependency and Alcohol Abuse Appraisal

Teresa’s physician then told her the following: “I am not trying to make a sudden analysis, but with your medical situation we may be working with two separate problems. As a result, I think we should schedule an appointment for you to get an alcohol addiction and alcohol abuse evaluation from my partner, Dr. Verlich, who is an alcohol abuse and alcoholism specialist. Whether your drinking situation is more correlated with alcohol abuse or alcohol addiction is unclear at this time, but I think that further exploration is justifiable. Then I feel we need to make an appointment for you to get a psychological exam from another one of my partners, Dr. Jordan, who is a psychologist. I want to get some more information about your depression and see how much your drinking and depression are intertwined.” Teresa expressed her approval of her doctor’s “game plan” and thanked him for his time and concern. Now all she had to do was to try to reduce her drinking and get ready for her appointments.
