This book provides the reader with a thorough understanding of the science of addiction, as well as practical tools for diagnosing, treating, and supporting individuals with alcohol use disorder. It also offers guidance for building a successful recovery and preventing relapse, and it serves as a comprehensive and evidence-based resource that brings together the latest scientific research and guidelines endorsed by expert professionals. Alcohol use disorder is a prevalent and complex disease that affects millions of people worldwide, yet is often misunderstood and stigmatized. This book is intended to contribute to reducing the stigma and misconceptions surrounding the disease and promoting access to evidence-based treatment and support.
This volume is structured in a way that allows readers to move through the content in a logical and accessible manner. The first few chapters provide an overview of alcohol use disorder, its historical and cultural context, and the science of addiction. Following that, authors delve into the various causes and risk factors for alcohol use disorder, signs and symptoms, diagnosis and screening tools, and co-occurring mental health conditions. The treatment options for alcohol use disorder are covered in depth, including medication-assisted treatment, behavioral therapies, and support systems for recovery. Chapters explore ways to prevent relapse and build a successful life in recovery. Additionally, the subject of stigma and misconceptions surrounding addictions such as alcohol use disorder is discussed, as are the barriers in building greater awareness, understanding, and access to care. A chapter on advocacy and policy aims to identify and highlight various paths taken in improving access to treatment and recovery support services, and the book closes with a chapter on all the major research and promising treatments that are currently underway.
From Stigma to Support: A New Vision for Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment and Recovery is a comprehensive and practical guide that will be greatly valued by psychiatrists and any other medical provider that might treat patients with alcohol use disorder.
