Alcohol discreetly and medically accompanied release
It started harmlessly. A glass for the evening, a beer after the appointment, the prosecco for breakfast, a cognac before sleep. Today would be the evening without conceivable – and the question of whether this is still drinking or already need, leave out.
What changes without anyone noticing.
It rarely starts dramatically. One glass becomes two because the evening was long. The bottle becomes the norm because the wine is good. Morning heaviness is normalized with sports or coffee. The espresso before the appointment veils what the night left behind.
And yet something changes: sleep becomes shallower, concentration less reliable, irritability higher, energy lower. Liver levels are rising quietly. The risk to the heart grows silently. And inside, something becomes quieter, which should actually be clear: the feeling of what you really need.
This is not a test. Anyone who recognizes several sentences has almost taken the most difficult step: clarity. What matters now is a room where you can be honest without anyone knowing.
Typical Questions and Observations
These indications are not self-diagnosis. They help to arrange the personal concern for a specialist discussion.
- You secretly plan your evening around the glass.
- They decided several times to drink less – and it came differently.
- You hide or gloss over what you actually drink.
- You know the morning wound licking too well - and talk it small.
- You notice that you can turn off without it.
- You know deep down that it has become too much. You just can't tell anyone.
Why discreet - and why with us.
A classic addiction clinic is not conceivable for our clientele. Not because of the stigma alone – but because of the practical reality: who has to carry a lot or stands in public, can not withdraw for six weeks, in a facility where discretion is not guaranteed.
At re:NOW we go the other way: a private, specialist-led refuge for a maximum of 24 guests. What we do is done in complete secrecy. Who you are, no one knows outside this house. And what you clarify here remains between you and your treating therapist.
It is not about fast weaning or hard confrontation. It’s about understanding together what you really need — and what replaced the substance at this point. This creates a path that lasts. Because he is yours.
Accompanied, not convicted. View
At re:NOW, a psychological psychotherapist with international experience in exactly this field and an internist specialist team work hand in hand. We take physical consequences seriously — liver, heart, sleep, metabolism — and at the same time work on what the substance needed inside.
In a place where people came with their loads for nine hundred years and nobody asked: the Kloster Beuerberg on Lake Starnberg.
Good to
know.
Am I anonymous with you?
Maximum Discrete. We are a private specialist institution, not a hospital. There is no file in a public system, no health insurance notification, no diagnostic stamps on insurance records. What you entrust to us remains between us.
Am I being treated here in a classical withdrawal?
If physically necessary, we take care of the first days by a doctor - safe, dosed, accompanied. But this is only the first stage. What counts comes afterwards: to understand what the substance has taken over in its place and to find a way to live well again without this support.
Do I have to stop drinking to come?
No. You come as you are. We listen, look together, and decide with you what the right next step is. Some reduce at first, others stop altogether, some come to the preparation. There is no one way.
What do I say to my environment while I am here?
You can describe each stay at re:NOW as a “stay for regeneration” – this is medically correct and no one will ask. We will help you in the personal consultation to find a language that you can also represent at home.
