Rehab News:Older people at risk of alcoholism
Increasing numbers of men and women in their 60s, 70s and, even, their 80s, are seeking
alcohol treatment, industry experts have said.
"Many people find retirement difficult to cope with. We grow up in a culture where work dominates everything and few are lucky enough to have a consuming passion or past-time to accompany them into retirement," Sue Allchurch director of the Linwood
alcohol treatment group told Easier.
"Likewise, families these days are scattered across the country, even the world, so are not part of everyday life for many when they retire.
"Combine boredom, loneliness and the worry of getting older and you have the perfect formula for someone to turn to drink. Those people with a propensity towards
alcoholism, which did not emerge during their working life, can find themselves progressing into dependency very quickly."
She added that it can be harder to spot some
symptoms of alcohol dependence in older people as they can be confused with symptoms of general aging.
