When youth between the ages of 12 and 20 consume alcohol, they drink an estimated five drinks per occasion about six times a month.
When a person consumes ten to twelve drinks, they become disoriented, confused, and dizzy; their vision is disturbed or significantly impacted; they will experience a general inertia, near total loss of motor functions, an inability to stand and walk, vomiting and possibly incontinence.
An estimated 50,000 cases of alcohol poisoning are reported each year.
If an alcohol still refuses to get help after their loved ones have staged an informal intervention, the family should reach out for the help of a professional interventionists; there is a large body of evidence that has indicated that an alcoholic is much more likely to accept treatment on the day of the intervention when a professional interventionist is present.
