Gold19 Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 It is very painful to lose a close relative to alcoholism. While there is nothing wrong with drinking, a lot of self-control is required. The drinker must always make sure that they are in full control of their drinking and not the other way round. Once someone feels the urge to visit the bar or pub daily, then this can be the beginning of a downward and uncontrollable descent into alcoholism. Quote Link to comment
sam1 Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 Alcoholism is a huge problem in today's world and it sad to see so many people getting into this bad habbit. Alcohol shouldn't be considered as something cool and should only be consumed occassionally. Quote Link to comment
Zirkon Kalti Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Drinking alcohol like brandy and wine is common in the western country due to the cold weather. However, sometimes people get depress and they drink alcohol to forget their troubles. They eventually become addicted to it and get drunk often. It is bad for the health and that is why many alcohol addicts have short lifespan. Quote Link to comment
VettLee Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I agree that a lot of people get drunk because they’re depressed and want to forget their problems even if just for a moment, but there are so many more reasons why people become alcoholics. Many people take their first drink as teenagers due to peer pressure while others are simply following in the footsteps of an alcoholic parent. No one deliberately becomes addicted to alcohol, but, like overeating, they soon realize that once they start it’s hard to stop. Quote Link to comment
PikaCHUA Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 Alcoholism is tricky because alcohol drinkers wouldn't know or admit they are alcoholics until something bad happens. They will always assure you that they are in control over the alcohol. The toughest part of being an alcoholic is that you don't just potentially harm yourself, you can also harm the people around you. Quote Link to comment
