Alcohol Use Disorders

If alcohol is so prevalent, how can I possibly stop drinking?


You're not alone in wondering this. We provide compassionate and effective solutions for those struggling with alcohol use disorders.

Freedom From Alcohol

We Understand the Journey back.

It’s a fact: alcohol permeates our culture.


You encounter it through television ads, social media, and various social gatherings. Attend any gathering—be it a work celebration, a casual barbecue, or dinner with friends—and, more often than not, alcoholic beverages will be part of the experience.


Beneath this widespread alcohol consumption lies a significant concern: problem drinking.


For many years, individuals with drinking issues were labeled as alcoholics, and the condition was referred to as alcoholism. Yet, these terms lack genuine medical or clinical significance. If you seek help from a therapist, psychiatrist, or counselor, they will not classify you as an alcoholic with alcoholism, nor will they categorize you as someone suffering from alcohol abuse or dependence. Instead, today's medical professionals refer to the condition as Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).

Understanding Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)

The NIAA presents the following statistics and information regarding alcohol and alcohol use disorder (AUD):



29.5 million people in the U.S. have an AUD

28.6 million adults 18+ have an AUD

6.7% received professional treatment and support

Almost 1 million adolescents 12-17 have an AUD

5.2% received professional treatment and support


These figures mean millions of people with unhealthy drinking habits don’t get the help they need. Untreated alcohol use disorder involving chronic, heavy alcohol use can lead to severe health conditions, including:


  • Liver damage
  • Heart damage
  • Stroke
  • High blood pressure
  • Kidney damage
  • Pancreas damage
  • Various forms of cancer


At Restored Life Continuum of Care, we're here to support you. Our personalized treatment programs focus on the entire individual—mind, body, and spirit—providing you with the opportunity to rediscover a life free from alcohol. 


If you recognize that you have an alcohol problem, don’t hesitate until it escalates.

Experience Healing, Growth, and Transformation Together with Us.


If you suspect that you might have a drinking problem, the guidelines outlined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V), provide clear criteria for an accurate diagnosis. The DSM-V categorizes Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) into three distinct levels: mild, moderate, and severe. To assess where you fall on this continuum, consider the following questions from a self-screen endorsed by the NIAA:


The NIAA Symptom Checklist


  1. Experience unintended excessive drinking?
  2. Been unable to cut down on drinking?
  3. Spent much time drinking or dealing with the side effects?
  4. Had intense alcohol cravings?
  5. Had problems with family, work/school, or home life because of drinking?
  6. Kept drinking even though you answered yes to any part of question (5)?
  7. Sacrificed activities you enjoy for drinking?
  8. Engaged in risky behavior under influence?
  9. Had memory blackouts or emotional impact from drinking?
  10. Built a tolerance, needing more alcohol?
  11. Experience withdrawal symptoms when you stop drinking?


Here’s how to score that test:


Zero “yes” answers mean you do not meet criteria for AUD

2-3 “yes” answers mean you meet criteria for Mild AUD

4-5 “yes” answers mean you meet criteria for Moderate AUD

6 or more “yes” answers mean you meet criteria for Severe AUD


How We Treat Alcohol Use Disorders


The key aspect of seeking support at Restored Life is our commitment to healing the entire individual – mind, body, and spirit.


This holistic approach is why our integrated model is so effective: we excel in merging traditional and complementary therapies to discover the optimal combination of treatments tailored to your alcohol use disorder.


How it works:

  1. We begin with a full medical, substance use, and psychiatric assessment to determine the appropriate level of care.
  2. We collaborate with you to create a custom plan that meets your individual needs.
  3. You choose a level of care base on your evaluation, your needs, and clinician input:


Where you start and how long you stay depends on you: our experienced, compassionate, professional intake staff recommends a program during pre-admission and admission, but in the end, you decide. If the plan doesn’t meet your needs, then it’s not the right plan for you. However, at every level of care, we teach you the practical tools you need to start the journey to sustainable, lifelong recovery.
