You may not need to completely reinvent your life to quit drinking, but making a few changes in your surroundings to help avoid alcohol triggers can make a big difference. If your doctor thinks you might be going through alcohol withdrawal, they'll ask you questions about your drinking history and how recently you stopped. They'll want to know if you've ever gone through withdrawal before. For mild alcohol withdrawal that’s not at risk of worsening, your provider may prescribe carbamazepine or gabapentin to help with symptoms. Most people stop having withdrawal symptoms four to five days after their last drink. For people at low risk of complications, an office visit to your primary care provider, along with at-home monitoring and virtual office visits, may suffice. Just like a broken bone…

Using diagnostic decision trees made specifically for SUD in older clients. The CDC's Timed Up & Go is one of the easiest ways to assess a client's fall risk. This test measures a person's ability to stand from a sitting position, walk a short distance (10 feet), turn around, and walk back to where the individual was sitting. Instructions for how to give the Timed Up & Go are available online (/steadi/pdf/TUG_Test-print.pdf). If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may want to assess the client for fall risk. Remember the importance of helping clients feel safe physically and emotionally. By contrast, having had previous treatment contact for SUD tends to increase the probability of seeking treatment for another SUD.The data used in the "average day" estimates are…

The acute phase is dominated by the physiological effects of the sudden stoppage, which typically includes intense substance craving. Treatment during this phase provides monitoring and symptomatic relief of the intense discomfort, and patients may benefit from the use of medication to dampen drug craving. Residential care removes people from problematic environments, maladaptive lifestyles, and the inducements to drug use they hold. While it can minimize the immediate temptation to use a substance, it doesn’t automatically confer skills needed for managing recovery under the pressures of everyday life. It is typically employed along with psychotherapy to help people understand what drew them into addiction and help them find more productive ways of solving life problems.Long-term recovery relies on the availability of an array of resources and support for rebuilding a…

That's why we might find ourselves reaching for a drink when we're simply sitting and not doing much. Contrary to popular belief, it's not just a result of having nothing to do. In fact, boredom is a genuine emotion, akin to happiness or sadness. When this emotion surfaces, it reveals our disconnection or lack of interest in our surroundings or activities.

The LIRR has a somewhat deserved reputation for poor on-time performance, however this is more of a problem in the farther eastern reaches of the railroad and not so much a problem in New York City and its immediate suburbs. The most common crime against tourists (not including being overcharged, or scammed in the Times Square area) is bag snatching. Never let go of your handbag (putting other bags down is OK, as long as you guard them carefully), especially in the subway but also when eating at a restaurant. Take special care if you are sitting outdoors or in a crowded self-service restaurant. Leave your passport and other valuables that you don't need to carry in a hotel safe or hidden in your suitcase. Don't flaunt a wad of…
