A doctor may diagnose alcohol dependence when they see two or more of the above symptoms based on an ongoing pattern of how you use alcohol. Usually this is based on behaviour over the last 12 months or more, but alcohol dependence could be diagnosed based on continuous daily (or almost daily) use of alcohol over a period of at least three months.

A warning sign is yellow in colour with black text and icons. All icons are housed within a black triangle. Global Spill Control warning signs are manufactured to the requirements of Australian Standards – AS1319-1994.

In many cases, the first step of treating alcohol dependence is the drinker acknowledging there is a problem. As with many health problems the second step is to seek help from a healthcare professional, usually your local GP surgery, who can refer you to a specialist.

Unfortunately, Heatleys cannot deliver internationally. We are also unable to deliver to P.O. Boxes, Locked Bags, Private Bags, Private Lockers, Parcel Lockers or Parcel Collect Addresses.

It can be tricky to spot the signs of alcohol dependence. People with an alcohol use disorder can be secretive about their drinking, and may become angry if confronted.

Alcoholism is a term used to describe the most serious form of problem drinking at a level that causes harm to your health. It describes a strong, often uncontrollable, desire to drink.

Are you concerned that you or someone you know may be dependent on alcohol? Find out how to recognise the common signs, and where to go for help.

Doctors assess whether someone is dependent on alcohol by looking for signs that show their patient can’t regulate their drinking, and that they have a strong internal drive to use alcohol. The specific symptoms they look for are:1

Heavy, bulky or oversized orders must be sent via a courier and can incur different delivery charges. These charges are calculated based on the cubic size and weight of the item (or parcel) and the delivery location. An alternate option is Click & Collect, where you can collect the item from any of our five Heatleys branches.

Someone who has alcohol dependence will often place drinking above all other obligations, including work and family, and builds up a physical tolerance, meaning they drink more and more for a similar effect, and they experience withdrawal symptoms if they stop.

If someone close to you is displaying signs of alcohol dependence, it can be difficult to know what to do. You might feel worried about them, frustrated that they don’t seem to want help, frightened for them or even by them. All of these feelings are normal and there is help out there both for people who are dependent on alcohol and those caring for them.

The UK Chief Medical Officers’ low risk drinking guidelines advise it is safest not to drink more than 14 units a week on a regular basis.

Medically, it’s recognised as a type of ‘alcohol-use disorder’ which can be treated. It’s different to ‘harmful drinking’ (another type of alcohol-use disorder) which is a pattern of heavy drinking which causes damage to your health but without actual dependence.

Heavy, bulky, or oversized orders cannot be delivered to P.O. Boxes, Locked Bags, Private Bags, Private Lockers, Parcel Lockers, or Parcel Collect Addresses.

Although it isn’t a term that is used anymore as part of medical care, some people who are recovering from dependence still use the term ‘alcoholic’ to describe themselves. Alcoholism is also known as alcohol addiction, alcohol misuse or alcohol dependence.
