Introduction. Osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS), or central pontine myelinolysis (CPM), is a complication of severe and prolonged hyponatremia, particularly when hyponatremia is corrected too rapidly. However, even slow correction of hyponatremia can result in ODS. Aim. In this paper, we describe a patient who developed ODS following slow correction of hyponatremia. Description of the case. This article describes a case of chronic hyponatremia occurring in the course of alcoholism. The patient was admitted in severe condition with extremely low sodium level. Electrolyte supplementation was carried out according to the European Renal Best Practice (ERBP) guidelines; however, there was a rapid increase in sodium level leading to the development of symptomatic osmotic demyelinating syndrome. Following several weeks of rehabilitation and supplementation of B vitamins, the patient’s condition gradually improved. Conclusion. Sodium deficiency should be equilibrated very carefully, especially in patients with chronic hyponatremia in the course of alcoholism. Even small doses of sodium administered in accordance with the guidelines in chronic hyponatremia can cause a rapid increase in serum sodium level resulting in osmotic demyelination syndrome.

The role of territorial self-government in alcoholism and drug control is significant. Municipalities have the widest competence in this sphere. Among the many different rights granted to municipalities, one can distinguish those of a prophylactic, preventive, but also criminal (repressive) nature. The latter are the subject of this article. The role of territorial self-government is not — as a rule — the use of repressive measures, but sometimes they are extremely effective in fighting against such negative phenomena as alcoholism or drug addiction. That is why the article proposes introducing solutions of a criminal nature, which are to help municipalities fight against designer drugs.

In today’s world, the pace of life entails many risks. One of them is the addiction to alcohol. Alcohol abuse by young people reaches worrying proportions. Most people consider themselves free from addiction. Teenagers see nothing wrong in consuming a few drinks or beers. Disturbing is the fact that every year the age at which young people start drinking alcohol is lowering. Moreover, the intensity of drinking increases. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the youth’s opinion about the alcoholism phenomenon in the light of empirical research conducted among young people. Analysis of the results of the empirical studies will be preceded by theoretical considerations about alcoholism.

After the First World War an anti-alcohol movement requiring the prohibition intensified both in Europe and the USA and it also resonated strongly in the Czechoslovakia. The main representative of this movement was the Czechoslovak Teetotal Union. It struggled for eradication of alcoholism as a serious social and health problem. The activities of the movement were in conflict with the interests of groups of alcoholic drinks producers and distributors, which represented a strong lobby connected to political circles, especially the most powerful political party, the Agrarian Party. Financially strong alcohol lobby with one exception (Holitscher Act of 1922 restricting access to alcohol for the youth) quite successfully neutralized the attempts of the anti-alcohol movement to gain a bigger state support in the fight against alcoholism. Only after the methyl-alcohol scandal in 1935 the government did establish a permanent advisory board for the fight against alcoholism in the Ministry of Public Health and Physical Education. It elaborated a many recommendations (such as blood tests for drivers after car accidents), which, however, were not implemented until the end of the First Republic. An important benefit of the Czechoslovak Teetotal Union was the founding of alcohol treatment counselling.

Częściej mężczyźni są podmiotem badania, a społeczna stygmatyzacja utrudnia podejmowanie badań nad uzależnieniem od alkoholu wśród kobiet. Dopiero współczesne koncentrowanie się na zdrowiu kobiety, będące wynikiem wielu ruchów feministycznych zwróciło uwagę na płciowe różnice oraz na sposób interpretowania tych różnic przy podejmowaniu diagnostycznych i terapeutycznych decyzji. W zależności od płci destrukcyjny wpływ alkoholu może przejawiać się w inny sposób a środki oddziaływania mogą być zróżnicowane. Z tego powodu w prezentowanym tekście zwrócono uwagę na różnice wynikające z płci osoby uzależnionej. Przedstawione różnice przede wszystkim dotyczą zasięgu negatywnego wpływu alkoholu, środków oddziaływania, podejścia do problemu uzależnienia oraz barier pojawiających się podczas leczenia osób uzależnionych. Wykorzystano literaturę uwzględniającą powyższe kwestie, aby wskazać na aktualną wiedzę dotyczącą używania i nadużywania alkoholu przez kobiety, stosowane programy terapeutyczne oraz ich efektywność. Zaproponowano terapeutyczne sugestie do przemyślenia, które są specyficzne dla pracy z kobietami uzależnionymi od alkoholu.

Children in alcoholic families are exposed to destructive patterns of behaviour. To adapt to difficult situations and survive, they play various roles. However, these roles, when transferred into adulthood, act against them. Adult children of alcoholics live with the stigma of co-dependency rooted in childhood. The subjects of the research whose results I present in this article were retrospectively told life stories of the adult children of alcoholics (ACA). I was interested in various aspects of their childhood memories and, above all, in the strategies they chose for dealing with the past. I applied a biographical interview with elements of self-narration to collect data.

10.19251/sej/2020.12(6) The presented article deals with the issues related to alcoholism, which is still one of the greatest addictions in our country. This is because of the prevailing customs. Alcohol is an indispensable element of modern culture that plays an important role in human relationships.The amount of alcohol drunk, as well as the way of consuming it, are regulated by cultural and moral norms. However, it should be remembered that it is a substance that is legally prohibited for young people. The issue was presented from the perspective of a young people (students) and a participant in family life - where alcohol plays an important role, because it is often an inherent attribute of family life. The drinking patterns of adults in the student's environment also play an important role. Young people perceive alcohol consumption as an attribute of adulthood and an element of good fun. The article also describes the effects of alcoholism - both health and social.

10.19251/sej/2020.12(6) W proponowanym artykule podjęto problematykę związaną z alkoholizmem pozostającym w dalszym ciągu jednym z największych nałogów w naszym kraju. Dzieje się tak na skutek panującej obyczajowości. Alkohol stanowi istotny element współczesnej kultury, co tylko wzmacnia rolę, jaką odgrywa w kontaktach międzyludzkich. Ilość wypijanego alkoholu, a także sposób jego konsumowania są regulowane przez normy kulturowo-moralne. Należy jednak pamiętać, że dla nieletnich jest to substancja prawnie zabroniona. Zagadnienie przedstawiono z perspektywy (małoletniego) ucznia, jak i uczestnika życia rodzinnego – gdzie alkohol odgrywa znaczącą rolę, ponieważ jest nieodłącznym atrybutem toczącego się życia rodzinnego. Nie bez znaczenia są wzorce picia prezentowane przez dorosłych z otoczenia ucznia, które spożywanie alkoholu odbierają jako atrybut dorosłości oraz element dobrej zabawy. W dalszej części nakreślono skutki jakie niesie za sobą alkoholizm – zarówno w aspekcie zdrowotnym, jak i społecznym.

The picturesque landscape and tourist assets make Warmia and Masuria one of the most attractive regions in Poland. The area is commonly referred to as the “green lungs of Poland” and the “land of a thousand lakes”. Nonetheless, Warmia and Masuria rank among the poorest regions of Poland. The unemployment rate is the highest in Poland. Transport infrastructure (road and rail) is poorly developed. The tourism-oriented profile contributes to poor development of industry and commerce. Social and demographic problems to a considerable extent impact and determine the level of security of local communities. As demonstrated by research, safety and unemployment link with other social pathologies.

Alcohol dependence is the chronic disease which damages many systems and organs. The toxic influence of alcohol on the central nervous system leads to durable numbers and size reduction of neurons and neural connections, especially within the frontal structures, the limbic system and the cerebellum. These changes have the consequence in cognitive impairments including executive cognitive impairments and memory deficits and emotional information processing disorder. Cognitive deficits, in turn, affect the way of understanding human reality and the opportunity to represent it in the language behavior. Diagnosis of speech disorders in the persons depended on alcohol can be accomplished by evaluating the narrative skills that reflect the knowledge of the world included in the human mind, what is more – the way of cognitive world representation. The article is an innovative (on the ground of logopedia) attempt to define the research methodology, that will allow to describe the language disorder in alcoholism.

Alcoholism is at the forefront of the greatest threats to today's Polish society. In the past, alcohol was consumed mainly for medicinal purposes, but was not readily available and produced on a mass scale. Today, everyone has an easy access to alcoholic beverages. More and more people decide to use them for various reasons which raises their risk of becoming addicted. Excessive consumption of alcohol significantly contributes to psychosomatic disorders, which affects the perception of safety by an addicted person and the whole society. The article addresses alcoholism in the context of its impact on the sense of safety in small local communities.

This article examines sociological, psychological, and suicidological research on the determinants of male suicide to explore the fact that Polish men complete suicide 7.4 times more than women, a frequency twice as high as in the US. This paper is based upon an examination of relevant literature and statistical databases. A keyword search was completed in both Polish and English language databases. Ideals of masculinity and negative social attitudes towards a non-binary view of gender may increase stressors and discourage men in Poland from revealing their problems while seeking support, explaining the high rates of suicide completion among Polish men. Suicide prevention programs must tackle gender conceptualizations and alcohol use patterns as well as increase avenues for male help-seeking behaviors. These changes will require political and religious organizations to confront the weakening of male hegemony as the organizing principle for family and society. This paper explores the increased rate of male suicide in Poland from the perspective of gender.

Addiction is among the many illnesses that modern man suffers from. One of the most extreme and dangerous addictions is alcoholism. A person suffering from alcoholism is unable – using his own strength - to stop its destructive character, both in the psycho-physical and the spiritual spheres. Many public institutions provide various forms of help, and among them the Church certainly plays a significant role. The primary task of the Church is to bring all of its members to the ultimate goal of eternal salvation. The apparitions at Gietrzwałd, which took place 140 years ago, seem to confirm the care that the Mother of God has for the salvation of every human being, especially one afflicted with the reality of drunkenness. She calls abusers of alcohol to conversion and to break with such a life. The exhortation contained in the Gietrzwałd message imposes particular tasks on the pastors of the shrine to care for those who are afflicted by any sort of addiction. The shrine, because it was chosen by the Mother of God, is equipped with special pastoral tools to undertake these tasks zealously. The effectiveness of fulfilling this sacred mission will certainly depend on cooperation with the Heavenly Mother, and in terms of those combatting sinful ailments, it will depend on the spiritual struggle, which must be accompanied by a child-like trust. After all, Mary assured all her perpetual help with these words: “Do not be sad, because I will always be with you”.

In the first part of the article, the author critically refers to her book Pytanie o wspólnotę. Jerzy Grzegorzewski i Jan Klata (The question of community. Jerzy Grzegorzewski and Jan Klata). She looks at her own feminist reading of Grzegorzewski’s performances through the prism of Audre Lorde’s essay The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House and looks at the number and function of women in the institutions he managed. She also notes that the last performance, On. Drugi powrót Odysa (He. The Second Return of Odysseus), was Grzegorzewski’s only production based on a script written by a woman. At the same time, she sees in it yet another emancipatory potential. The subject of her father’s alcohol addiction, raised by Antonina Grzegorzewska and staged on the national stage by him, can be understood as a stage coming-out of an alcoholic and his daughter as a co-addict. Putting forward the thesis that the play operated on the poetics of ugly feelings described by Sianne Ngai, Kwaśniewska analyses its reception, wondering why it failed to cause a debate about the normalisation of drinking in Polish theatre and urges us to start such a discussion now.
