Heavy drinking habits and crisis?

Who does not remember the crisis of the nineties? Time of racketeering, job loss, rapid fabulous wealth, and unusual begging. They remembered a piece of indiscriminate mass drunkenness that led to emergency alcohol abuse, family breakdown, suicide, poisoning. Many tens of thousands of men killed, end one's life, gone, before that having made such filth, chaos and horror in the lives of their loved ones, that now is the widow remembers with a shudder.

According to statistics from the consumption of alcohol associated with the crisis in 1994 in Russia were killed 2 million 300 thousand people, among them due to alcoholic psychosis - 170 thousand.

Women, during the crisis were many times more resistant to consumption of alcohol, though, the fact that they were fired more frequently and their earnings were lower than men. At what price it was given - they know the mountains drunk soothing the tears of helplessness at the plate and an empty refrigerator. They ruin oneself by drink far less frequently than men, despite the darned tights, worn slippers, growing debt and contemplation of the "family head" in constant "high spirits", for whom "everything is normal. Women work two jobs, trying to get money to feed their families. They could not afford to leave the world of the "pink dreams" with alcohol, and shouldered the entire responsibility of the home, the family itself. Many people have to live through it again - a new crisis is just beginning .

Maybe in the high female responsibility and is the secret of resistance to alcohol during crisis situations? It would be nice if doctors were able to create a vaccine from a woman's responsibility and to teach it to all men without exception. But this is not, unfortunately! And protection from being head of the family is not drunk before they find a job, have to find yourself.

Why do men reacted differently to questions of life? "Some have found solace in alcohol, while terrorizing the once-close friends, making their life hell. Others, in contrast, went head first into the work; family for them becomes the only thing they lived. Any woman now wants an answer to the question - "What will do in this situation, my husband (the son), is not whether the threatened my family happiness and peace?"

He works on a 10-12chasov for "wheel of" earning money for the family, and on weekends "has the right to relax." Men in families where the rest of the work associated directly or indirectly with alcohol consumption, the most vulnerable to rapid alcohol abuse in critical (crisis) situations. In most cases, the work for them is a deterrent against frequent consumption of alcohol. The emergence of free time due to job loss and the long search for a new cause increased frequency of alcohol consumption, leading to a rapid transformation of her husband, son, nephew of an alcoholic.

Losing themselves into drinking in the past crisis and men malopyuschih large army, in families where alcohol was exhibited on the table only on holidays. They did not have the habit reduce stress and relax with the help of alcohol. This habit, they quickly acquired during the social upheavals. She became for them found the solution to all problems, with her help, they managed to look through rose-colored glasses on malodenezhe, unemployment, difficulties at work.

Crisis. What does this mean to you? - Lack of money? Lack of work? Unpaid loans?

The trouble is that any external crisis exacerbates the crisis of family relations. It finds, as a litmus test of family troubles.

Money - a wonderful thing - they are able to fill (figuratively of course) those voids that are formed in family relationships or create the appearance that they are filled.

You can often go shopping and buy what pleases - relaxation, stress management. You can go to a club, swimming pool, get in the sauna with friends, go to the fishing. You can "buy off" from a child any toy or sweets. You can compensate for the lack of attractiveness, age, sexual potency, etc. And when this "filler", that "our patience assistant" disappears - exposed emptiness appalling. Fill them nothing. And as a new "placeholder" Many choose alcohol.

We are often so great to support colleagues if they stress or trouble. We know every minute detail of a colleague, but often do not want to pay attention to the husband, wife, son, daughter. We know little about their hobbies, favorite books, movies. Maybe worth to know?

How to save a person from addiction to alcohol, to detect in advance of his attraction to "the simple problem-solving" and distract from drinking quietly to himself? Threat (here we are talking only about the threat spivaniya a member of the family) lies in the inconspicuous, even to the family members, some fragmentation of their actions. No interest and action! I would like to solve the issue of its own employment or additional income and, as a personal achievement, to tell his wife. But do this quickly fails, the clock is ticking, and with it grows and disunity. The family should be evenly distributed solutions and responsibility among its members, the family - a single whole. In men's earnings are always laid indirect involvement of his wife, but in a cozy house - indirect participation of men. If this concept is absent, then the impact of the crisis did not perceive the whole family together, but only the man who was considered the main breadwinner ..

The crisis - the product of state action. Unlikely that the state would save a man from alcoholism, which arose due to loss of work. You can prepare yourself to potential difficulties. Well, if you miss the social cataclysms, and if not? Consult with experts, how to behave in a situation when your loved one, in your opinion, there is an unhealthy craving for alcohol. Discuss together what you do if someone loses his job. Only together, you can overcome everything!
