Alcoholism

When people are alcoholics they are addicted to it too, its like a chemical for your brain(Kalant, Harold) Many people who are alcoholics are very distressed, people who don't like to deal with their problems, some just do it for he fun of it, or also known as to "fit in".


For self help people go to the recovery program also known as the AA. To attend these recovery programs you have to have the will of stoping. You have to recongize your own addiction and understand how its hurting you and even others. AA is a 12 step recovering process (Norris, John L) Slowly you have to try and regain your confidence back.














People who have this problem may never drink safely again, they can never fully recover. Alcoholics have to regain control of themselves and their life. (Alcoholics Anonymous) They may have harmed many people in the process of recovering and have to except the hurt.

Alcoholism is not a joke. Millions of people suffer from it and it highly effects peoples lives. Im sure many people know an alcoholic, its not easy even to deal with them. The first step is admitting you have a problem then getting help. Its not an easy road but its well worth it.
