Even with a tiny population this census-designated place (CDP) in Tulare County, California, has several of its residents battling alcohol use disorder. Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a long-term brain disease where an individual can’t control their drinking. People with AUD usually suffer some form of damage to their lives including social, employment, financial, and health. Alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence/alcoholism are two ranges of AUD. If you cannot control your desire to drink despite the problems it may be causing, drink in risky scenarios, allow drinking to interfere with hobbies, then you likely have AUD. AUD can also damage relationships with loved ones, co-workers, business partners, etc. AUD impacts your brain in a way that makes it harder to quit drinking on your own. Having a support group can make it a lot less difficult. Support groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous are like a fellowship that offers strong support to members. Its meetings are led by people who overcame AUD and have a strong desire to help new members to do the same.
