Understanding Alcohol Addiction
Alcohol addiction, also known as alcoholism, is a chronic disease characterized by an uncontrollable urge to drink despite negative consequences. It can have profound effects on physical health, mental well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life. Recognizing the signs of alcohol addiction is the first step toward recovery. These signs may include:
- Increased tolerance, needing more alcohol to achieve the desired effect.
- Withdrawal symptoms when attempting to quit or cut down on alcohol consumption.
- Loss of control over drinking, leading to excessive and harmful drinking behaviors.
- Neglecting personal and professional responsibilities due to alcohol use.
