Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment
When Alcohol Is the Way You Cope, Disconnect, or Get Through the Day—It’s Time for a New Way Forward
Alcohol dependency often hides in plain sight.
It looks like “just a few drinks to relax.”
It looks like keeping it together at work—but falling apart at home.
It looks like control—until suddenly, it doesn’t.
Whether you’re drinking every night, bingeing on weekends, or struggling to stop even after close calls, you don’t have to wait for a crisis to ask for help. At Metro Recovery Center, we treat alcohol use disorder (AUD) with the compassion, structure, and clinical depth it deserves—without judgment, without lectures, and without expecting you to hit rock bottom first.
What Alcohol Use Disorder Looks Like
Drinking alone or in secret
Using alcohol to sleep, cope with anxiety, or quiet intrusive thoughts
Making rules around drinking—and breaking them
Experiencing shame, blackouts, or personality changes
Struggling to quit despite serious consequences
Functioning on the outside—but emotionally spiraling on the inside
