Alcoholism is a real disease because of the way it presents itself, the disorders it causes, and the symptoms it gives the patient.
The term Alcoholism is used when disorders gradually affect people who consume alcohol and follow the lifestyle behavior of the habitual drinker.
Usually the alcohol user, even when various disorders occur in the body, ends up losing control over the amount of alcohol he or she ingests, and continues to consume it and rages more in drinking to find himself or herself in the same dazed condition, or resumes drinking uncontrollably after a brief abstinence from consumption.
The person accustomed to unhealthy alcohol consumption may devote many hours of his or her time to drinking different types of alcoholic beverages in pursuit of the “hangover” , i.e., that state of physical instability and mental fogginess that is extremely dangerous both to the drinker’s health and to his own safety and that of others around him, with repeated episodes that go on to modify or alter the drinker’s personal, family and social life, work environment and the lives of those around him.
Alcoholism needs to be addressed early from a treatment perspective, as disorders can escalate progressively in a short time.
The disorder caused by alcohol consumption can be mild, moderate or severe, depending on the of symptoms that occur.
