It was proved the necessity of its detection as a criterion of differentiation of the choice of content and volume of measures of medical and rehabilitation accompaniment of patients with AA depending on heaviness of the harmful effects of an alcohol disease. It was detected the peculiarities of an ability to perception of the social support in persons with alcoholic addiction.  Compromise of emotional and volitional features of person and the low communicative and emotional competence that form a personal resource of perception of the social support and also the negative dynamics of the aforesaid phenomenon in patients with AA in progression of disease were defined as the main impact factors on the process of perception of the social support.
