Never Make Excuses for the Alcoholic

When you live with an alcoholic, you need to put up with a lot. The one thing that you should never do is may excuses for their actions or their drinking. You have to tell the truth, but in some cases, just not saying anything is better. If you make excuses for what an alcoholic does or why he or she drinks, you are just helping them keep on drinking and not taking responsibility for their actions. Sometimes it may be easier to make excuses than admit the true, but it just compounds the problem. One way to think about it is that if you have nothing truthful to stay, then just say nothing.

Excuses make you look bad. When you make excuses for why someone drinks, you are not helping them at all. In fact, when you make these excuses to someone else, they look at you differently. They wonder why you would make excuses for someone’s attitude or drinking. If you have ever joined a group for family members of an alcoholic, you would be told that it is unacceptable to make excuses for any reason. This just helps the alcoholic keep drinking without taking responsibility for their actions.

Never hide the problem or you will enable the alcoholic to continue to fool everyone. This can cause more problems. If one day, the person you have protected and made excuses fro does something that is really bad, no one would believe you because you helped them hide behind excuses. You have to remember that if you want people to believe in you, you have to be honest and not lie or make excuses for the person the drinks. If someone asks you a question, answer it truthfully and never make an excuse.

If you are abused in some way, never cover up this fact. Many men and women have done this every day that they lived with an alcoholic and ended up regretting it. Women, especially can be abused and live with it. However, if one day, the man in your life decides to take the abuse one-step farther and you protect yourself, who would believe you. You had spent all your time covering up for what they did that no one would believe that this person could do this. You have to be honest and not cover up the abuse. You need to tell someone that can help you.

After the fight is over and he or she wakes up, do not be afraid to tell them once again what they have done. Many alcoholics do not remember what they did the next day when they wake up. Some even remember and feel remorse. Letting them off the hook for their actions will only make it okay the next time. They will know that whatever they do is okay because you will forget and forgive without a second thought. Make them understand what they did and how it has to stop. This is always a good time to mention that they need professional help.

If they miss work, you cannot keep making excuses. Many people with drinking problems have problems making it to work every day. Eventually they will have to explain to their boss why they are missing work. If you are asked to call into work for them because they just do not feel good from drinking the night before, the answer you give should be no, do it yourself. If they are going to keep drinking it is going to keep happening and sooner or later, you will be judged because you helped that person lie to get out of work.

Take control of your life and distance yourself from the fighting and messes that the person makes. This is hard to do especially if you love the person. Living with an alcoholic in your life is never easy. You have to avoid the fights and stay out of any messes that the person may get himself or herself into because of their drinking. Alcoholics will mess up more than once and they will always apologize, but the next time they take a drink, they forget and do it all over again.

Professional Wart Removal: What You Should Know

In the United States, a large number of individuals develop warts on their body. Warts, although they can be unpleasant, are almost always harmless. Despite being harmless, there are many men, women, and children who wish to have their warts removed. If you are undergoing a wart removal for the first time, you may want to think about visiting a professional healthcare worker. Many individuals feel more comfortable undergoing their first removal when it is done by a professional.

Despite having your warts removed by a professional, there are a number of important factors that you should take into consideration. One of those factors is the type of doctor you plan on using. If you have a primary healthcare physician, a doctor that you see on a regular basis, you may be able to have your wart or warts removed by that doctor. Although a large number of primary care physicians do remove warts, there are some who do not. If your doctor does not perform any wart removal procedures, they will likely refer you to someone else who does. That person may be a dermatologist; a professional skin doctor.

In addition to the type of healthcare professional you plan on visiting, it is also important to consider the removal method that will be used. This is important because your body may have a negative reaction to certain removal methods. Perhaps, that is why you are advised to try and schedule an appointment with your primary care physician; they tend to know your medical history. Before undergoing any treatment, regardless of whether or not you are a new patient, you are advised to inform your physician or dermatologist of any medical complications or allergies that you may have. This information may not only have an impact on the success of the wart removal, but it may also have an impact on your health.

As mentioned above, most warts are completely harmless. This is because almost all warts are considered non-cancerous growths. Despite being relatively harmless, your wart may be tested. Primary care physicians do not always test warts, unless they are given a cause for concern. On the other hand, dermatologists are healthcare professionals that have a focus on skin and everything that is associated with it. For that reason, there is a good chance that a dermatologist will test your wart or warts. This is completely normal; therefore, you do not need to be alarmed if your wart is taken for a biopsy.

After the procedure has ended, your primary care physician or dermatologist will likely provide you with a set of instructions. These instructions will most likely tell you how to properly care for your wound. This is extremely important. Many individuals do not realize that wart removal procedures may result in scaring, even those that are professionally done. However, the scarring doesnt always depend on the procedure used; it tends to depend on the care given to the wound afterwards. That is why it is important that you follow all directions given to you by your doctor. These directions may include keeping your wound covered at all times or the application of a skincare cream.

By keeping the above mentioned points in mind, you should be able to know what to expect when you go to have your wart or warts professionally removed. If you would like more information on the process, as well as any precautionary measures that you should take, you are advised to contact your primary care physician or the dermatologist, which you plan on visiting.

New Hair Products-From Bald To Color

What new hair products are coming on the market this year? Are there any big changes or new products that you just can’t live without?

There are many trends that are coming up, not just new hair products but trends as well. As I’m sure you’ve seen over the past several years one very prominent trend is that balding men, and even those that aren’t balding, are shaving their heads.

Today, for many men, bald is beautiful. This one trend has really taken the pressure off a lot of guys. You can’t do much (well, you can’t really do anything) about your genetics so if you are predisposed to losing your hair, you are probably ecstatic about this particular trend.

Another trend that seems to be growing in popularity is hair color. I know, you’re probably saying to yourself that hair coloring has been around for a long time. Even the “unnatural” colors have been very popular for a long time.

What is a little new though is the age of the women who are adding the more “funky” colors to their hair.

It’s not uncommon to see a younger person, man or woman, to have some sort of hair color other than blonde, brunette and redhead.

Today, we see older women going with the blues and purples and greens too. I personally know two women who have added an unusual color to their hair. These are middle age, suburban housewives who have chosen to add some color to their hair.

One has added blue and green and the other has added green. It’s different, that’s for sure, but it is fun and both of them really enjoy the way it looks.

It’s kind of nice that even an older woman can still explore and experiment with her look. Today we are far less restricted by overly rigid societal pressure… and I think that is good.

Another very important change in hair care is that more and more products are touting all natural in their hair care products.

Today, we are more concerned with what we put on our hair because we realize that it can still end up in our bodies. The pressure to clean up and focus more on only all natural products when creating a new hair care product is becoming the norm rather than the exception.

Years ago, most top brands got a lot of flack for testing their new products on animals. It has become the norm to not test on animals which is a great move forward but today that is not enough.

Today, the top brands have to also offer all natural versions of their products, or at the minimum, less potentially toxic ingredients in their products.
