Warning signs of alcoholism in seniors
Alcoholism is not just a disease of the young. Many seniors have problems with alcohol, too. There are a number of signs that may indicate an older adult is suffering from alcoholism. Among them: Is he or she usually alone with few visitors? Have there been any unusual incidents or accidents? Are there signs of low mood? Is there unexplained memory loss? Has the person's lifestyle changed? Is a formerly pristine home unclean or disorderly, for example? Are there grief issues to address? Are medications losing their effectiveness. Are there changes in eating habits? Could he or she have been mis diagnosed as having dementia, Alzheimer's disease or senility?
